Default Harley wheelie went wrong but nice save

A friend just sent me this video. I can't imagine the adrenaline pumping through this guy. Thankfully he didn't get hurt, poor bike tho.

Whoa.

The rear tire came completely off the ground.

That was pretty crazy.

Disappointing part was when he shrugged. Just me, I guess.

Thats str8 up Roger Regan. Those Straight up guys kill it on their bikes. They also make their living stunt riding harleys so the occasional wreck has to be expected.

These guys ride sponsored bikes and get paid to ride harley's for a living.... they are far from "idiots"

He picks it up and puts it on the kickstand. A little late to try to show that you care about it.

It's like he said... You stunt your bike, you're gunna drop you're bike. You don't ride that well and have never dropped your bike...

"That's the name of the game!"

I don't see how anyone could call him an idiot...he's obviously doing a stunt. How anyone doesn't find this pretty interesting is beyond me, but I guess it should be expected from the weekend warrior riders who don't dare do anything on their bike other than ride to breakfast on Saturday and Sunday. Maybe the dealer if the ol' lady says you're allowed.
