Longest trike wheelie

[DX Rider12]

I went on a wheelie fest in my yard today :w00t: . I was wondering what are your record wheelies for time and or distance on trikes? My longest for time is 15 seconds (don't laugh). Distance?... About 80 feet.

2 football feilds on my 250SX, went through all the gears on that one.

Down a paved road on my 350X....... about a quarter mile. In a grass field on my atc 70 about 100 feet, I havent got good at that one yet!

damn.. i can do first and second gear.. i find it hard ot keep them up..first gear can only do short oens because it either goes up too high or not enough.. second is the best gear for me to do them.. can do about 10 seconds? dont know really.. i find it hard to keep it up because at the end of second gear when i go to third the front comes down.

[Dammit!]

The largest area I've ever had to wheelie in was probably 400 yards long (guessing). It was long enough to get up to 6th gear and then slow back to first again with room to spare. I could go end to end there pretty easy.

check this dvd out...... the guy (mike) does a wheelie for about a mile down the road even changing gear with the front wheel in the air!!! its awesome!!!!!!!

well gosh! I ride wheelies on the beach forever..If im in 5th and about to bog down i just goto 4th and get the revs back up..Or i can ride 1st gear wheelies if im bored...I guess the longest i've gone is a couple of miles..IF i have the tire pressure the same on both sides, the skys the limit!

I don't want to put anybody under the gun here, but I hear Xsystem and his pals pull wheelies for frigan miles............wow!

lmao i can wheelie mabe about 15 feet, i suck. i just nail it in 1st and it comes up, but after it revs up, the front tire ges back down. any suggestions?

My dad said that he used to have a friend with a crouch rocket that could pull wheelies for as long as he liked. He used to drive around doing a wheelie, as long as there were no stop lights or sharp turns, I guess. He also told me that he could turn while doing a wheelie.. just not like a sharp turn or anything.. I imagine it was a pretty small turn.

Put in in second, get going a little do not redline. Just lightly coast, blip the throttle, then right after you feel that jerk gas it and lean back. Then just feather the throttle.
I get past the balance point on purpose and I just goose the throttle when it gets back to the balance point then I feather until it goes back to the point again.

there ya go check that out, I love wheelies! I can go for a long long time on my 200. I am working on my tri-z but my lack of a rear grab bar has stopped that. All in time my young padawin....(star wars :p )

[toyvette81]

i suck at it too lol , i can go on a bicycle until im too tired to pedal(miles) and pretty good on a dirtbike but i cant get the 3 and 4 wheelers down pat

[brapp]

i have goe for abotu 12 miles on the pa turnpike on my olld cbr1100 crotch rocketbut i have ridden a yamaha grizley 600 for almost a mile already then had to turn, i also had ridden one on a 85 250r on 5th gear for about a mile and 1/2

[ATC crazy]

About 200'.....I run into trees after that.

[Tri-ZNate]

My only limit is tire pressure. My longest I guess was like 300 or 400 yards. My longest one on time was like 2 min (kept it in first gear and kept babying the throttle)

he rides corn fields. my ace. he can rock em.

My brother can wheelie anything forever. The day I picked up my 250Rs he wheelied one of them in first gear down my street until he hit a red light , then turned around an grabbed a power wheelie through fourth gear until my driveway. He had never ridden a trike in his life. I imagine with proper tire pressure ho could go until he got tired. My brother is the wheelie KING!

[brapp]

i wheelied a ford yt14 lawn mower once for abut 60 feet. and i wheelied my old toyota tacoma pickup with a little help from a few bricks and a speedbump lol end up doung a power wheelie till the rear leafsprings broke lol

[Quickonstep]

ive wheelied in a circle on my old 400ex for about a hour, then it got more or less retarded.. tire pressure, and leaning, and balance will get you there.. once you find that balance point, you can ride them for ages..

get on grass, pull up the front wheel, let the grab bar hit the ground, AND FALL OFF... thats key.. once you know where the limit is, youll find the balance point natrually.. once you get to the balance point, you can ride them for days.

thats one thing ive never done was try changing gears while doing a wheelie....so probly about 10 seconds for me :wondering

[toyvette81]

lol i can ride one until i fall off lol but i dont have any where to practice but the road and i dont care to drag my brand new grab bar on that too much, but mabye 20 feet for me lol but a couple miles on a bicycle.. yeah...now what?!?!

[Honda Lover]

Some of you guys seem to be exagerating a little, or maybe i just suck at wheelies. Anyway, i can ride em for a long time on my 200s, but haven't found a really long stretch that i can really go a long ways on it. I can't ride em in a high gear either, and cant change gears while pulling a wheelie. Usually do it in 2nd or 3rd and balance with my knees on the seat.

[toyvette81]

well some of em might be exhagerating but i have seen some 400ex's go down the road here and be on the back 2 wheels for ever lol through curves and everything, shifting etc...

[brapp]

on a 250sx i can get the front end up in 3rd and power wheelie it into 5th and ballance it there forever. and my tri-z and 250er i can wheelie tilli run out of room. and the 350x is just nuts. i can do wheelies in 1st gear and sometime si can even stop dead and balance it and let the front drop a little and go off again for another 10 min. and i am not exagerating i have been riding since i was 3 years old in 1987 on my 85 atc70. ok first off baslance point on 83 atc110 sitting on the bars, 2nd is the ballance point on a verry expensive 350x(garage queen) and last is wheelie on a free 250sx.
and last doesnt constatute as a wheelie but a cool pic none the less
