There is a warning in my manual that says do not do wheelies for an extended period as it may do damage to the motor. Something about oil not getting to parts of the motor. I personally never had a problem.

ok to set the record strait, well to a point at least, It wont seize or any of that stuff. The most it will do is leak gas out the overflow because of its position. I pop wheelies constantly and ill bet most of the guys on here pop whrelies. It wont harm your engine otherwise honda would still be making lots of money off of trike riders.

it applies to the honda 4 strokes becuse the oil pump is at the front of the case's so when you wheelie for along ammount of time you could risk siezing it, im not sure where the pump on the 250sx is but all the honda 200's 185's this applies.

you cant ride a wheelie long enough for it to do anything, yes it can screw it up if you do it for long enough but thats one hell of a wheelie if you do... gas may spill out and as long as it doesnt hit a hot spot (pipe, HOT ENGINE) your good

on a twostroke you dont have to worrie cause the oils in the mix!
