Thanks to jake for letting me borrow couple vids on techniques. Here is a little section from the vids on wheelies.

YouTube - Slow wheelie technique in control

Those are great techniques to learn for crossing rivers and water obstacles... mud bathes etc.... tends to keep you a little dryer along the way too.

With deeper rivers you have to compensate for the flow and force of the water trying to pull you down but the throttle control is where you really need experience here.

or just throw your feet over the handle bars and pin it

That looks like Bailey?

One of the first things I got from my doctorate degree in moto-ology, if you practice wheelies it will only help when you have a major problem and then you know how to react. I am taking HOTROD out and working on this!

yea it is bailey, and yea i agree its been so many times where i would get into some kinda accidental wheelie and start to panic and all chaos breaks loose and im pulling on the bars in panic mode haha. if its something you can control and feel the balance point of a wheelie without power horsing it then its a benefit for going over accel bumps, little whoops etc, im gonna work on this maybe next monday or something...
