Im not saying im innocent, but i tend to get out of them and i tend to not post them. It seems to me that you enjoy the ridicule :lol: ---

> [@Paulo](#): > > jesus christ, who the fuck cares. > > He was doing a wheelie, on a back country road, not putting anyone else in harms way. I know everyone just likes to bitch Tyler out, but holy fuck. They’re are MUCH worse things that could have been happening in those pics. This is far from the first time he’s been on a bike, and a lot of riders (even on this site) probably do worse than that on a daily basis. 100% agree. I lost count of how many dumb fucks I’ve seen already this year doing wheelies in traffic or next to me on main roads, most of them without jackets. Then the crash and get severely hurt and want a pity party…🎻 It is people who do this shit on traveled roads that make the general public have a negative thought towards all people on sport bikes. ---

i can respect you did it on a closed road, i was on the highway last week and some guys in front of my car did wheelies in regular traffic, FAST too you do take alot of abuse on this site, and honestly, it doesnt even matter what people say, you know that if you screw up or get hurt its your ass, so thats good, just dont let it get to your head and do it where other people are! pretty sweet pictures either way though :headbang: ---

I don’t do that kind of stuff, and personally prefer that the already tiny percentage of rubber that hits the road actually stays there to do its job… i’m pretty green though, and know my limits. but i only knock on the fools that try to wheelie though intersections trying to show off and eat pavement in the middle. Obviously a LOT of people ride like you are in the photos, otherwise you wouldn’t be on here asking for advice and tips AND getting good feedback… You obviously know the risks involved, and have taken some precautions. Ride how you want, just don’t do it where you could hurt someone else, amiright? ---
