They cause your clutch to explode meaning you are stuck for an hour and a half waiting for a recovery van in monday morning rush hour.  |

That would be 'cack handed' wheelies  .
Or on a bike that has had a whole life of clutch abuse from other things (ie drag starts etc) as I found with Ste's (at the time) ZX6R.
Did it actually break, or is it just slipping? |

Bikes done 52,000 miles on that clutch. 
I got it 2 weeks ago and have wheelied it everyday, 2nd gear 40mph rev to 10k then dump it.
It has completley fucked. It rattles really badly when you start the engine so i need to order a "heavy duty" set tonight. |

The rattle is normal for a old kawasaki, they all do it and its nothink to worry about.

On a lighter note my friend flipped his bike yesterday morning doing a wheelie. Bikes a write off and there could be a police investigation.  |
