Nobody even notices a wheely on a modern bike....
But on a vintage bike, it is even cooler...
I had a buddy that weighed about 155lbs, would think nothing of lifting the whel on his XS11 and keeping it there.. we used to do it all the time. I could not usually keep the 750 up but he could. My Beemer R100RT though was very easy to wheely..
I overdid it and wounded the clutch on the RT at the drags in Sturgis 9did a few burnouts it did not need).. the crowd lved the fact that the wheel would come up when I hit third gear... huge difference pulling the aircleaner on that bike. We had a sohc 750 there too that was ridden out, it ran in the 11,s... fun times
