Okay, that is so gross.  

If you watch this video, it is your fault (I can't stand ortho injuries).

You've been warned!!!!

I saw an injury like that in person once in a football game.  My buddy Harris, who was a DB, was laying on his stomach after a play.  He was screaming and pulling clumps of grass out of the ground.  I didn't notice right away that the toes on his right foot were pointing to the sky, straight up.  Did I mention that he was laying on his stomach?

Quote from: seanhellenhjow do you guys do it at 10/11 o'clock - I can't even get the front wheel off the ground - that includes the 9000rpm and dumping the clutch!!! :oops:

How fast are you rolling when you pop the clutch?  :dunno:

yeah you gotta sit back go really slow (almost dead stop) and rev it up and dump the clutch...hard on the gs but easy on the 6r

Lol squidly  :mrgreen:  j/k

I did my first wheelie by accident a couple days ago, reved up really high to take off from a stop sign quickly, I was going to make it smooth but I got a striking pain in my clutchhand and dropped it. Front well came up like 2-3 feet, it was cool but scarey as shaZam!. I've tried doing them purposly the last couple of days in parking lots but I don't think I've got the man organs for it. The bike is pretty loud at 9k and when I'm barely gliding fast enough to stay upright, dropping the clutch is a scarey thought. I can get a good jerk from dropping the clutch but its probably only 5-6k when I do it, definately not enough to get up.

Quote from: rychrger72Haven't tried to ride it out yet, but i can pop it up to about 10-11 o'clock in 1st.  still tryin to get it up in second, i love cuz all the other guys i ride with even one w/ an '05 blue gs just like mine said there was no way I could get the front wheel up. Showed them :nana:

same for me. The guys i ride with who have the I4 (ninja,gsxr,cbr) always cant beleive that the gs can wheelie. I love seeing their faces. Its actually hilarious.

I donno man, I've been riding for two years now, an older bike, and have always wanted to try to wheelie. so I get my 93gs, put a brand new clutch in it and give myself about a week to get used to the bike. one night I decided I wanted to go try it and find myself in a huge parking lot. let me just say, there really f-ing hard. you gotta get over letting the clutch out smooth and get used to just poping it. and you have to get the throttle and cluch sicronized perfectly. I was getting mostly just little hops outa the front wheel. finnally I got the timeing just right and the front end shot skyward, (something around 11 o-clock) I was like 'oh fu<k' and rolled off the trottle real fast. BAD IDEA. the thing came crashing back to earth and I got it right in the nutts. :oops:  they don't call it a crotch rocket for nothing....
