omg, this guy would have been fine if he didnt get scared and put his foot down! hahha omg, I only laugh cause he jumped right up, hopefully just bruised ego and wadded bike, but damn this guy gets a little scared going back kinda far and just full on takes his foot off the peg and tries to set it on the ground at like 50mph, lol

Oh man that blows. his fault though,

Did the people filming just happen to be there? at the end it almost sounded like the guy filiming didn't know the guy

I think he knew them, I would assume they were there to film the big wheelie attempt lol

what a stupid reaction, the moves we make in situations of extreme adrenaline define your true reaction, but whos brain tells them to try to put the foot down on the ground while doing a 50mph wheelie to keep from looping out?

Maybe his rear peg folded in on him? I don't do stand ups but my buddy mentioned something about his rear pegs unable to fold in for safety reasons...
On a second note, my instant reaction when my wheelies go sketchy is to chop the throttle which usually leads to me thinking oh shit I just blew my fork seals.

Haven't yet though..

Throttle chop ftw. Fork seals are pretty cheap as opposed to a new bike.

if ur standing up u just go into a frogger stance close to the bike then u can correct a wheelie that starts to go crooked or keep it from going too far back, you can even control the wiggle when ur almost at 12 o clock

his peg could have been loose, some of them twist when they are loose but I think he just got scared and blew it

- and u can always chop the throttle but give it one more little twist before you go all the way down so u dont slam hard, blown my fork seals before never again!
