If you're gonna be doing wheelies, make sure you get some slash-down slip-ons. Not that they'll help... you're just gonna grind your muffs down that way, so you'd might as well have ones that are supposed to look like that!

I think my SG is the first bike I've ever owned that I have absolutely no desire whatsoever to wheelie. All my other street bikes (Japanese) have been wheelie monsters, but somehow I don't ever see myself lofting the front of the Glide...

To each his own opinion. I have to ask WTF, we read all time of stupid **** people do which result in bad things and then blame something or someone else. I personally have to much time and money invested my bike to even think of raising the front wheel off the ground. Can't fathom for what reason someone would want to. Glad I don't have to be cool for anyone.
