Im hesitant to start this forum cuz i notice alot of the tlr and busa riders are usually not aggressive riders. but im very curious...any of you into wheelies
?...i had a busa for 5 years, downgraded to a srad to mess around with wheelies..but it was too much of a drop in torque for me so here i am...on a tl1000r 2002 model which a friend talked me into. Now i realize this is a large bike for stunting but i love the torque this beast puts out. my question to you guys is are wheelies gonna kill this tl1000r??..the chain that came on the bike popped while i was throwing it up on some nice roads. i replaced the chain thinking it was the age of the chain probably....along with the rear sprocket...front sprocket seems fine...3 weeks later on almost the same road doing the same thing i popped the new chain. Now keep in mind i went with a clip master link. not sure if this wouldve made much difference but the chain did pop at the master link. what u guys thinking when u hear this scenario...is this bike too much for one wheel?? is there anybody out there who wheelies and have been wheeleing their tl for years and had any problems Guys keep in mind ive learned people buy bikes for different reasons..so before u do any insulting keep in mind some of us want the look..some of us like the sound...some of us use it for commuting...some just wanna pose..lol, i like aggressive street and highway riding, and getting low in curves. i dont care about looking good and ive been down on a few bikes in my 11 year run...i love the POWER. Informed riders please give me some feedback...thanx. Oh and fyi the front sprocket is 16 teeth the rear is 42.....peace!!!

and constant wheelies are hard on head bearings etc.
