The only reason for his foot to be on the seat would be if he had a rear hand brake. Even if he did the wheelie doesn’t look any “cooler.”

Bottom line, stupid.

Not everyone needs a rear brake to do wheelies…

Balance doesn’t require a brake… it requires throttle moderation. If he is only riding it for less than an 1/8th miles… he could just ride out a power wheelie.

If he isn’t using a hand brake… I give him all the props. There aren’t many people left out there not using the back brake like their lives depend on it.

I’m not attacking you or anything… just saying.

And he isn’t a fucking squid in that pic… he is on a closed course at a race track. Not everyone needs to be in every piece of equipment available to do a quick wheelie.

Quit abusing the term SQUID… we’re going to have to come up with a different term for people who wear safety gear (but not enough for the haters) and people who stunt… but not on public highways (on closed courses) … maybe we can call them your average rider?

Well said. However, not only does his foot position not look cool but COVERING the rear brake is always smart to prevent unexpected accidents… no matter how good he is at maintaining balance point.

I do agree with Willy though, it’d be nice to know what he was doing with that foot.

And I am not a hater, I appreciate a good whoolie:tup: but damn… if I was at the strip I would most certainly wear over-the-ankle boots and gloves. No question.
