Poor bike
I suppose it makes sense to allow people to practice/understand the throttle control and vertical balance in a controlled environment ... getting a bike THAT vertical for real, lets face it is going to end in many tears in the learning if it was done normally ...
Its actually a neat idea ...
Oh and that dumb bint was showing a classic example of using to low a gear  ____________________ The purpose of life is to fight maturity. |

They aren't using it to learn to wheelie though - when you start out I'm pretty sure you don't stand on the pillion footpegs, hence having no rear break control. They're just trying to be kool init. ____________________ Full licence from 16/4/08

How many people though will go on that machine , and think they are wheelie pros, after a go on that.
Its a good idea for a bit of fun , but im sure there will be some who go home and try it for real.
and the get out on the road and bin it. ____________________ Piaggo liberty 125 SOLD - CBR 125 - SOLD Aprilia RS 125 - SOLD CBR 400 NC29 - SOLD ZX6R currently own https://bikepics.com/members/Graprilia/ |

I'd love to have a go on one of them just to see if it feels anything like the real thing.
For the record the real thing on my bike scares me shitless cos it needs bucketloads of revs in first gear to get anywhere  |
