Anyone ever get the front end off the ground? I took off pretty hard from a light this morning and I swear the front end almost came up on me. Not too shabby for a 800lb bone stock bike. Man I really love this thing!!!

I'm to old and my Star to new to do wheelies... At 800# That's a lot of weight to come down on the front forks... (Even if it comes down properly...) But if you must... I guess this is how it would be done

I did do a wheelie one time. I was an accident when I was showing off for a buddy. I had just installed my Avon Venom tires and I tried to spin the tire while moving. It used to, but that was the old tire. It brought the front up about 6in, AND scared the crap outta me. You can, but don't. I have to be careful now, cause I still have the Avons.
