I have a grip. but you exaggerated a bit. repeatedly abusing your bike and using it for something it wasnt intended will hurt your engine, yes. But doing some wheelies during regular riding will more than likely, like gunther said, have the same negative impact that doing such things as revving a cold engine or neglecting to change oil or brake pads, etc.

again, im talking about the engine, i already explained the effect wheelies can have on every other aspect of a bike. its the stress of the impact of comming down that does the most short term damage.

It just puffs a little smoke when reved I was told that it smells like oil and I have yet to spend the time to look into this issue. But it just irritates me that this bike only has 11k on it and it seems like its shitting the bed. Maybe a valve adjustment might help it i dont know. I dont even think I want to put a dime into this bike because I dont really want it any more.

Good review about 3 post in! and yes that is a bike on one wheel... = ) sorry RAE. I had to do it.

And your "only a professional can push it to the limits" line is pretty classic!

I'm sure you mean on a track where timed laps is concerned... Cause any retard like me can abuse a bike. I'm just saying they are pretty well built and at the revs they were designed you and I wouldn't live long. Just that I seem to be up in that neighbor hood more often than most. Well at least on the street cause on the track YES you would kick my ass I hope.
