    gs850 wheelie (pic inside)

    im sure i will get hate for this..

    by god i was bored an the bikes about to be parked to be rebuilt.. did a few practice ones...but with a 1/4 tank of fuel some clutch and stand up action i think i have achived it...

    rode it all through first gear(5mph or so roll) with a fairly smooth set down....

    all the crap ive put my 850 through it still chugs along with no complaints

    enjoy

      Hey, I love wheelie's too! And, you did it off the main roads (at least it looks that way). No issues with that in my book. However, we might need to talk about proper body protection...

        Impossible. Must be photoshopped. Everyone knows that shaft drive bikes can't wheelie.

          Im waiting for the famous picture of the broken shaft that I think Steve always posts. lol
          The only bike I have ever wheelied (meaning got the front tire off the ground about a foot) was my 82' 550L. haha seriously. That thing pops up like nothing.
          Cool pic.

            “Remember When in doubt use full throttle, It may not improve the situation ,but it will end the suspense ,
            If it isn't going to make it faster or safer it isn't worth doing

                I don't know if I ever had a bike that I DIDN'T wheelie. my 1100F will carry it to 100 mph, & my 82 1100E wheelis a easy as a big thumper.

                As for gear, well it your butt. I say this though, absolutly NO shoe laces allow an a motorcycle. Ever! Lose the tennis shoes.

                      You need a Bandit.

                      Well, I don't know if 'need' is the proper term... but if pushed hard enough, they'll pull the front wheel up a bit.

                      I know because I've seen it on Youtube.

                      Well, at long last we have photographic evidence that it's possible on an 850!
                      and God said, "Let there be air compressors!"

                        i know, i was at work, all my gear was at home about a mile away...and it was on a side road with no traffic at the time
