    Doug Domokus (The wheelie king) used one too.

    For high speed controlled wheelies I'd pick the 350X even though I never rode one.
    didnt doug use a 185S as well?

    Yep before there was a 200s. His rides were modified for wheelies though. He had it so that he could "brake" the rear tires indipendently to turn while wheelie'n.

    i can weelie anythign from a atc70 to a 250r tri-z but i can tell you the worst trike to wheelie is the alt50 fliped one backwards doing a wheelie and broke the rear axle and carrier clean off the frame, and this is also because i can pick it upo with one hand being 6 foot and 230lbs lol but did wheelie it for abotu 100 yards or so. mand i woudl have to agree with kasey on the atc110 but i am suprised noone said the 250sx yet??

    i also like my 350x for wheelies,but my old 225 was killer,,,from a dead stop,that thing would stand straight up before it started to move forward and then i could hold her up and shift through all the gears
    PUT SOMETHING HOT BETWEEN YOUR LEGS(350 X)

    SX isn't exactly a wheelie machine. It does very good wheelies, but I'm sure there are better out there.

    I was actually thinking about the 250SX myself. I loved riding wheelies on that machine. My 200s (junkyard dog) does really good wheelies as well. I am not to fond of wheeling around as the last time I rode out a good one is when my 200s' original motor laid down.

    250SX hands down.
    [20:55] <waterpumper> putting a racing pipe on a Foreman is like putting a high dollar bikini on a 400 pound chick...just because it fits doesn't mean it looks cool

    i have lots of hours loged on my 250sx doing wheelies, just enough power to lift it up and enough weight to keep it there. i used to sit on the handlebars of my 110's and my 250sx and do 4th and 5th gear wheelies on the sx sitting ont he handle bars. the only bad part of the sx's is the brakes are junk. awesome mud mach9ine too mine was snorkled.

    No doubt in my mind it's the 250R. No worries about oil not getting pumped around properly because it's a 2-stroke, perfect balance point, controllable powerband. Learn to work the clutch in a wheelie and you can literally ride a wheelie until you run out of room, regardless of how much room you have. I've mentioned it before but when I had the room to do it I could start off from a dead stop (like in the vid) take it all the way up to sixth gear, then slow back down to first almost to a dead stop without putting the front wheel down. I could do first through 5th on my 200x but it was way harder to do because of the lack of power in the higher gears. I could never go from 5th back down to 1st on anything but my R though.
