Ya just gotta lean WAAAAAAAAAAYYYY back

See...now thats what I'm talking about.

That's not a 50-cc scooter though. I'll try and see if I can bounce the front end and lean way back.

The youtube page title is "wheelie with my sr 50 r"

It's ALL about body position! I used to wheelie this little quad with a certrifical clutch that way. It's actually a lot of fun, because if you fuck up you're doing 15mph instead of 65mph.

You're right. Upon closer examination, it is a 50-cc but it doesn't look like my SR50 though.

As far as why I'm getting a moped? Why ask why? It's a fun little runabout. I can break the speed limit and a copy probably wouldn't bat an eye.

I wouldn't mind having one, I'd run around the neighborhood, hell I work a mile from my house, I'd ride it to work. Not to mention that it'd be a good pit bike! Honestly, I would have gotten the yamaha one with the fat tires so it'd be a little better in the dirt/pits at JGP or an MX track.

Bounce it and throw your weight back.... you can do eeeeeeeeeeeet!
