I have another video for you it alittle long and more into detail and Im more that sure that after you see it you'll be a step closer to riding wheelies. I'll begin you a copy.

i can pull up the front no problem but like i said maybe for only 5 inches max. kinda scared still since i don't wanna drop my bike. i still won't do it while riding out though and more than likely not on this bike. i paid too much for it and if i f'k it up...it'll be awhile before i get another bike.

don't get me wrong..i like watching you guys do it...but for now i can't afford to do it.

plus, that sv engine doesnt like to be wheelied too long. i did plenty of them on my sv when i had it, and never had a problem with 17,500 miles on, but ive heard lots of stories of guys blowing that engine from doing them. it starves the front cylinder head of oil when the front end is up in the air. its fine for a second or two, but you definately dont want to ride them for a mile.
