ACTUALLY

once it stops raining here I was thinking of making a video going into to detail about how I learned to wheelie, would this interest anyone?

or would people just post things like "how to die 101" in the thread???

haha, feel free to make it.. im sure people would love it.

just in a controlled area, or you will get beat up :P

14/41...never seen that on a busa before...can you snap some pictures of the chain guide at the front of the swingarm at the pivot?

16 rubs...15 does a number on it...I am guessing it is either removed or eaten away.

12 o clocks on pretty much any suzuki for any real distance wipes out rod bearings...be aware.

and of course...high slow wheelie normally result in slamming odwn of front ends...get good at replacing seals...


My request....your next video....can you please find a nice deserted parking lot?

I can care less about your gear....but you don't have control of the bike while waving the front in the air. So please remove the threat to others by choosing as safe of place as possible....looks like you do it a lot.

Oh lordy, another expert! The kid already told you he put more than 20K miles on his R1 with tons of wheelies and never replaced a fork seal.

He also told you that if done properly, wheelies are no harder on fork seals than romping the corners.

After watching his video you say he doesn't have control of the bike? Are you serious! I'd feel safer with that kid on one wheel next to me than I would with most everyday street riders on two!

glad for your opinion, it means nothing to me.


His wheelies should be done where they don't affect others.

Nope don't see traffic in the video I saw....:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Shows me that he somewhat agrees that he knows that his actions can affect others...

I would really like his actions where his control is so limited to be done off public roads for two reasons....safety and public feedback.

Encouraging or promoting people to do these things on public roads helps destroy our hobby.

But then again, Tufbusa is a track guy...so maybe he wants the hobby pushed solely to tracks for his own personal agenda?:whistle::whistle:

Personal agenda my arse! You giving this man advise on how and where to wheelie would be like me giving Ben Spies advise on how to corner!

You haven't learned how to brake yet so I know better than to ask if you can wheelie!

What's the matter dude, can't deal with anyone who can give you an intellectual arse kickin?

Here is a man who has obvious talent that you don't find in the busa community very often. Instead of complimenting him on his abilities, as usual you are giving him instructions on how he should be doing his business as if you were the .org wheelie expert. Last week you were the brake expert so who knows what you'll be next week!

I'm all done so puff your little chest up and let's hear you roar! :beerchug:

I was told not to engage in these types of posts that will result in name calling...

it is not what the owner wants they claim.

as for your boasting....we have a saying...

"its your story, YOU tell it how you want."

now please go away and stop posting to me...2nd time I have asked.

Big thanks to tufbusa and tonymastodon for the compliments on my riding, you guys have been here awhile and its cool to have people sticking up for you.

Those wheelies were filmed on an access road to an industrial park that is deserted. Not weaving traffic or highway fastwheelies, so I don't see how the whole thing began but either way. Stoked to see the interest in the thread, more vids/pics to come.

I will say that I am no expert by any means, just a guy who wants to help others ad well as gain input to better my riding skills.

Thanks for the props everyone.

Well, I will say it's the first time I've ever seen a Busa used as a stuntaz bike. I'm a little unsure what the point here is though? Do you do stuntz on another bike as well....something a little more suitable to the task like a 600? From everything I have seen from the pros there is a reason that they have crash cages, tail bars, high handlebars and flattop fuel tanks....mostly because they crash a LOT. Do you have any idea what is going to happen to your insurance if you lay it down while stunting????

I'm not trying to be negative, just wondering why you are doing this stuff on a Busa (other than the fact that you can).
