This isn't going to end well. Don't worry, Obama care will pay the bill.

Just bust'n your chops, but seriously - do your wheelies "away" from everyone else...nothing ruins lives more than a speeding HD bullet launching into cars, or crowds. May sound/look cool, but things can go awry real fast and then you'll have no means to turn back the clock & think twice about potential risk(s).
If your going to do this around a crowd of people, make sure it is a group of liberals, if you lose control and hit the crowd, it will be no big loss.

Please post a warning similar to "make sure you're not drinking anything before you read this"

I just got a new keyboard and now it's been showered with pepsi.

I dont have the ***** to wheelie a harley. I actually have my eyes set on the KTM Duke 690 as my next bike just for this duty

Good luck in your quest to master harley wheelies man. I agree that it looks badass on a machine that really isnt meant to do it.
