  |  Wheelying the M50
Ok i know i have said in many post that the M50 can do a 12 O'Clock wheelie and i think you guys have gottin the wrong impression. I am only sayin this to prove the amount of power and torque the bike can put out. I am in no way recomending to actually do this to your bike since it is not really meant for this. YES it is cool to show off every once in a while (i have gotten many tickets because of this  ) but do not make a habbit of doing wheelies on this bike. Although the neck CAN handle the pressure, your seals in the forks after a while CAN NOT handle it (i have blown the lower seal on my left fork). ALSO this is not a sport bike where they build everything knowing what your going to do to it. When you pull the bike up too far you can get air in your break lines from the emty space in your reservoir (since i changed my bars this is a little worse) and i have to bleed my breaks once a month because of this. So YES the M50 can do it, but i wouldnt recomend doing it very often. (but do when your with your sport bike buddies haha) Sorry for thos of you that thought i was trying to brag. Just trying to prove the amout of power this bike has even stock. Ride safe |
