At least he was on a deserted street with gear on. Bu tthat's exactly why I don't even fuck with learning how to wheelie.

Yep... I like doing wheelies, but I'm retard terrible at them... Open throttle, raise the wheel... Close throttle, blow fork seals. At least I don't loop it!

I like how people think as soon as you attempt a wheelie you automaticly loop it and crash. Most normal people get unconfortable and let off completely and let the front end down hard.... but if your good you toggle the throttle and ride it out.

I only wheelie when no one else is around and no cameras are on me, that way if I loop it I can say I lowsided somewhere curvey.
