Yeah you can with 33bhp same principle.

On a bike like the SV it's not the power that brings the front up its the sudden power.

Its something to do with the torque on an SV that makes it the ideal candidate for a wheelie wide..I mean wheelie ride.
Although after blowing my engine from an innocent mistake other than wheelies, that made the front cylinder starved of oil.....I do not endorse them...they is bad for your bike!

I can do pansy sized wheelies but I don't have the balls to overcome my natural reaction to shut the throttle, maybe I'll give it another shot sometime.

As I learnt, it's a piece of pie getting it up, but keeping it up is another matter.
