Hey Scott,
To be honest with you, the gixxer grand (gsxr 1000) might just be the best motorcyle on the planet for high speed wheelies(My opinion). But you didn't give us alot of info to go on. Are you going to do high speed highway wheelies, or slow speed wheelies (on the track, circle wheelies, etc.) If you want to save your tricks for the track I would suggest a gsxr 600 or a kawasaki 636. But once again thats my opinion.
Ed

  - GET IT UP IN 3rd OR 4th?! Dude you better go buy a Barnett Kevlar Clutch and Springs, then go up 3+ teeth in the rear sproket [and even then, MAYBE] if you expect to bring it up in 3rd, let alone 4th. It would be easier to learn how to shift and ride into 3rd or 4th... you can do that on anything with two wheels and a gear box if you know what you're doing. Good luck slappy (NT) -- ~ Prozac ~, 15:26:03 10/15/04 Fri
  - My TL is down right now but I got 3rd gear wheelies all the time. 4th eh, took some muscle and is way to hard to get up to the balance point. You want 4th gear wheelies out of a TL. Do this... pray. When that don't work I give you my last option (two words) PORT & Polish... & cams, and power commander... etc etc (get it) (NT) -- ARE-OH-BEE, 18:56:35 10/31/04 Sun
