Erm, NOS-assisted wheelies? Confused Doesn't NOS just kick-in at the touch of a button? I reckon that you's be practising cartwheels more than wheelies.

I could do some mad wheelies on my zx, standups and everything.
Everything was stock apart from the can, so you really should have no trouble clutching it up in 1st and maybe 2nd with a tooth off.

hi
err dean if u wanna do long wheelies your gunna have to modify your gearbox, unfortunatly during a wheelie the oil drains out of thew sump? or summing casuing the gearbox the sieze. U can however get a plate fitted ionside the bike to stop this from happenening, that or u can fork out for a load of second hand motors Very Happy. Do what im doing waiting till i get a bigger bike before doing wheelies, or get an in-line 4 like zimms.

400s tend to be pretty highley tuned, so NOS could be 'interesting' for engine life... and you really don't want wheelies done with an on-off button.

Yeah, the V4s have a dry sump, so long wheelies will eventually make the engine go pop. As for the gearbox though - I think that's probably more to do with doing cack-footed clutchless gear changes...I can't imagine the clutch lasting for very long either.
