Staying in the throttle definately helps reentry! :woohoo:
Thicker oil in front forks also makes life easier on header tubes,yet another advantage of a turbo motor! :woohoo:
Power induced wheelies are definately the best if you can control them,the 1st 100' slipping the clutch on my old 1327 trying to get it down the track with front tire 8" off the ground with me laying over tank slamming gears waiting for it to settle itself down was the main reason I used to love racing! :evil: :woohoo:

Been inching to pull one all season but I've held off because of the thirty year old chain , now that the season is winding down and I've put 7000 trouble free miles on her with no long trips planned maybe it's about time to hammer on it some. :woohoo:

just pop a few and get a feel for setting it down and pulling it up smooth when theres no one around.

Hmmm... Used to wheelie the hell outta my old Ducati but haven't even considered trying it yet on my KZ1000. Anybody have any luck pulling the front tire up on a shaftie?

Those big ol heavy mags and dual discs make it a bit of a challenge! :laugh:
I used to do wheelies in my case 90xt skidloaders by backing up then slamming the levers forward really fast,works even better without a bucket! :woohoo:

Do the same thing with bobcats, we duct tape an egg to the counterweight. Longest wheelie with in tact egg wins! Loser buys the beer!
Mine:
04 Honda rebel 250(wifes)
04 GSXR 750(bolt on galore)
98 CBR 600F3(filter, pipe, adjustable cam sprokets, dyno tune)
76 KZ900A (LTD gauge pods, crash bars, LTD(style)pipes, dyna coils and ignition,headwork and mild port cleanup by cavanaugh racing, K&N filter pods, heck I dunno.
