I think the difference between me and him are the following;
1 He looks like he knows what he's doing
2 There is a total lack of abject fear in his face
3 It doesn't look like it's going to go all horribly wrong
4 I bet it's not his bike
5 He might have done it before
And as our firends in advrider agree...these pics have been photoshopped....everyone knows that you cant wheelie a bike with shaft drive....(walks away just as a beer bottle passes overhead)
Very impressive collection of shots - enjoyed them.
When I try to do a wheely now I naturally throw my (considerable)weight forwrd and stop it rising. Doh!!!
I think there are many who would and that was my point, you can do anything you like on same way, but also having benefits of shaft drive and non diving forks - vastly superior bikes, aren't they?
