Wheelie King!!

ok, shartley, just making sure.

shartly, I think you are the one that needs to brush up on your physics. obviously I can't hold that out for long, because I was slowing down in that pic.
Its easy to do, start a wheelie go over the balance point and apply back back brake. ITS NOT ROCKET SCIENCE. To prove I didn't bust my *** heres more pics (why would I bust my multiple times?)

BTW, shartly you have no idea what your talking about. It is not the momentum that keeps you from falling it is acceleration (if you are not fully balanced), which can also work as pictured with deceleration. (Even staying at the same speed you still have momentum. Maybe if you can find some fancier words more people will believe you.

Check out how vertical I can get:

all people in these forums do is argue about useless subject matter... *sigh*

True... so true.

You can with proper momentum keep a wheelie from falling. Acceleration will make it RISE, and deceleration will make it FALL... but find the correct momentum (speed if you will) and you can sustain the wheelie in an otherwise "odd" point of balance.

Stop posting your garbage physics. Holding out a wheelie has nothing at all to do with momentum (or speed) I can balance a wheelie at 2 mph or 15 mph it is all about the position of the wheel (the balance of the weight). That thing about motorcycles was complete BS. Have you even seen a motorcycle do a wheelie. I was just at a motorcycle stunt show and it proves your ignorance. When you pick up a wheelie you gain much speed, and the less skilled riders will often use acceleration to keep a wheelie up rather than balance. Whether you can hold it out has absolutely nothing to do with momentum or their speed, its all balance, but you use the acceleration and deceleration to maintain that balance. If what you were saying is true, your saying it is possible to maintain a wheelie with the wheel 2 inches off the ground, that is some odd physics.

that's total BS man, you just can't admit you're wrong.

[shartley]

I was going to say for you to go play... but I think "Go learn" would be more appropriate. I don't mean to be rude, but you did not READ what I wrote, and even less comprehend it, or so it would seem.

And no amount of you crying that I just can't admit when I am wrong, or any other argument you try to use will change that after reading what you wrote, you clearly are confusing a lot of issues that make things do what they do.

So, instead of saying I am WRONG, post something that PROVES I am wrong.... so far you have not done so. I am sorry you feel bad about this, but you made your posts, not me.

BTW, YZ80's are for little boys. They're little ***** bikes.

OK you been warned and still challenging the filter - three days ban for you - cphilip

[shartley]

You are on a good track for a ban... May I suggest a little caution? Noone is upset at you, lighten up... and watch your language. Please review the forum rules.

I don't say this to be a jerk, but so that we don't lose another member.
