Make sure it's got plenty in it, and don't do stand-ups for 5 miles at a time.

Watched allsorts of videos on youtube, but at the same time seen alsorts of videos with people cocking up and wrecking the bike and themselves.

I will no doubt learn one day, its nothing about willy waving, i think its a challenge and makes riding even more interesting than it already is, and it would give me the buzz I crave for without rediculous speed being involved.

GSXR600..if i,m not mistaken??...take the bike in 2nd up to around 55mph 7kish revs,slip clutch to around 12k whilst at the same time giving a blip of the throttle.....front end up no probs(works for me) & with a bit of practice you should be able to ride the gear out.

For a start just get used to setting off very aggressively, it'll get you used to the front end going light.

and here we go again.

dont wheelie sv's they go kaboom like mine did fathers day 2007 :'(
