2. you didn't say that you had been riding dirt bikes for 9 years and had done many a wheelie (or however you friggen spell it).
3. you didn't advise that you were doing dam friggen wheelies on your own time with only you at risk of breaking your own neck.
4. all the people that made comments are long standing members who are the most amazing riders out and only care for peoples riding skills and if your about to take someone else out as a newbie with little experience, so before you go throwing nasty names maybe disclose exactly what your doing!!!!!
5.who wants to do dam wheelies on a ninja 250 anyway!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is your opinion, I would like to ask some of the Sunday crew present that day what they thought of your learnedness & skills you speak of? In fact why did you not ask the Sunday crew about monos that fine day, I am sure the response would have been much the same as it has been here.2rot8u wrote:.i can lean verry well for a newbie i have been to the old road with the sunday crew once no probzz!!
+ honestly this 9 years of MC you speak of & being able to do monos on them if you cant translate that to a road bike then I seriously doubt you could do them properly to begin with, my suggestion .......do another 9 years of MC & once you have nailed it on your chooky then do it on the road bike.
& before you bag out peoples spelling / Grammar ....that's ... Capital I's, 1 r in Very & Capital S for Sunday.
Lastly if you cant cop a bit of criticism without going off like a little girl then possibly you are in the wrong place.
Has anyone got the link to Ardy's how to do a mono write up?

I just did a quick search & there is heaps of stuff on youtube about it, the best site seems to be from these guys, as they have quite a few short tutorials covering all aspects, keep watching as this will link on to other clips

Hey, that's cool. Fault on both sides, we also probably had little patience with you, just due to the nature of the question most likely. Don't take it personally and make sure you hang around for a bit to see how cool all the guys and gals are.

It's natural for us to conclude that a learner rider on a Ninja 250 may have little to no riding experience. Without your background filler and clarification later and as others have said, this may have helped with the responses. Why, well because if you had said something like, ..........."I've been riding dirt squirts since I was 5, did 6 seasons of state motocross and can hoist a minger on my CR250 for as long as you want, but I'm having trouble getting the little Ninja to stay on the back wheel...." You may have had some more constructive replies.

For what it's worth, the principles are the same, be it on a roadie, or a dirtie. Back it off, dip the clutch, rev it's tits off, drop the clutch, find the balance point, try not to flip it!

I tend to leave my wheelstands for the dirt squirts though. If I flip a dirtie, it's no biggie (and I often do) but if I flip the roadie, it's gunna be ugly!!!
