we had a chat about wheelie school when chrisblack10r started a thread on it. from what i remember the outcome was mainly that jon177 would run a little school for it and that paying money to anyone else to show you was a waste of time. cant find the thread at the moment but will post it if i can. :lol:

p.s. there are a few girls on here. pocket rocket is one, but i dont think she gets much time to contribute. she clearly has more of a real life than me  [wall] [pray]

Sorry I stand corrected Chapesses,  I forget how the ZX10r forum rises above petty social restrictions and does not differenciate between sex/race/religion, I personally am ginger, but feel perfectly at home..... :lol:

no amount of teaching will give you the bottle to do it...... you either have it or not....

the theory is easy get a mate who can wheelie to tell/show you it..... then go away and have abit of practice on your own to get the feel.... then get said mate to assess you.....

I am shit I can get it up sometime but barely ever carry them  [wall]

dont agree mate, being taught how to do something helps you to try more and more and build the confidence to do what you are being taught
