Fun wheelie bike!!!

**200Xtreme** · 11-10-2003, 09:19 PM

Just got done doing some work on my neighbors mint '83 (i think) YTM200EL. Took it for a test spin. What a fun machine, and great wheelie bike. How does the honda 200 or 250 automatics compare to this bike performance wise?

The Honda atc 250Sx is a blast to do wheelies on. With the auto clutch it allowed me to learn how to shift while doing wheelies, great begginers bike for wheelies. So far I have made it too 5th gear on the Honda doin a wheelie. Ive made it from first to second on my Tecate, but it is a little hairy for me yet because of the twist throttle more practice I guess.

I can ride 5th gear wheelies down the higway on my 225DX, my cousin was riding it and he rode one for about a 1/4 mile, it was awesome.

I am too scared to try riding wheelies. I just started riding this year so I have a lot more to learn and a lot more riding before I started popping and riding wheelies.

I was the same way as you, but this is how I beat the fear. I was riding up an incline with a lip at the top that i didnt notice, shot the front tire up on the SX adn scared me but I couldnt stop grinning, so that led to actually workin on riding them. If you happen to feel you are going to far back or got out of the balancing point, hit the rear brake real quick. Start small and work your way up.

wheelies will cause all the oil to run to rear of motor, purge an air bubble and starve the top end cam bearings, cam lobes, cam and will score the piss outta them.

**monster 84r** · 10-01-2005, 08:07 PM

isnt that only on 4 strokes, since the only oil other than two stroke mix is gear oil that just lubes the tranny?

2 strokes its ok. I would not ride wheelies on 4 strokers for long periods of time.

Maybe after riding miles, but doing stuff under a mile wont do anything to it.
