ha ha your funny..the guy was asking how to ride your average wheelie ..that DOES NOT REQUIRE A HANDBRAKE ..i mentioned to cover the back brake but its not necessary seeing as its not but like 2 hp that can loop out from under him ..i forget NO ONE IN THEIR RIGHT MIND CAN WHEELIE WITHOUT THE BACK BRAKE oh no oh no!!



and yes no need to go off on what tricks you HAVE to have a handbrake for but that wasnt what the guys question was about..he wasnt asking about uni's for ****s sake

you ever douche it onto the forks? i would figure eventually it'd happen, I just wonder how the forks would handle it. oh, and are you getting it up from a stall, from 12, or off the forks?


Yea it's come down on the forks a few times but i can usually catch it or atleast lessen the blow.



As for the 2nd question...I can't give away all of my secrets :cool:

Are your panties still in a wad? Regardless if I'm using it in these pictures it's still essential to becoming a better rider.
 
yep all wadded up..actually no not really..i stopped posting in that thread cuz it was pointless..just like it still is..i never said learning the back brake wasnt something to do..yall blew that **** so far out of proportion it got stupid..iv never once ragged on your skills or anything..u can stunt a 50 wayyy better than i ever will ..number one cuz i dont care to i put more time into other hobbies ..still i was giving advice on a basic wheelie the guy didnt say he wanted to be doing high chairs, special k's, uni's and all that fun stuff..he asked for adviced i offered it...there is more than one way to learn a basic wheelie



anywhoo great skills great pics



and i know the secret but i dont know the secret of how to get the uni up w/o a front wheel on

Well the guy wanted to be able to wheelie across the finish line, and god forbid he gave too much throttle, atleast he'd have the instinct to tap the rear brake rather then loop out a wheelie at the end of winning a race and look like a fool...that's all I'm saying.



Yes you can wheelie without it, but it's good to train your mind to use it if needed.
 
which i agree i wouldnt want him to loop one out winning a race either..seen it done...



brake control helps advanced wheelies and makes longer and slower wheelies much more controlled..only point i was saying is its not impossible to do it without them.



answer this...when u do the uni w/o the front wheel does it make the balance harder?
