spose it depends on riding styles... I have never been one to put any pressure on my back brake... if I use it I usually feather the fecking thing as I hate lock ups...  and I use it sometimes to stop the bike rolling when I am stopped  [rofl]

You only need the back brake during a wheelie if your going behind balance point.

If you've got your pillion pegs on and really want to wheelie then stand staggered with one foot on the left rear peg and the other as normal covering the rear brake. You will be cruising them for a mile in no time, its just getting used to it coming up whilst standing up.

Trust me and try it. :icon_thumright:

Let me know if i can help mate. Wish i had someone who would show me when i was learning instead of just thinking they were the bollocks and fobbing me off.
