Ok, of all the videos I've seen of wheelies, they all seem to be baggers or dynas with the exception of one night train. My question is this, has anyone here seen or done wheelies on a fatboy? I have tried a few times but usually just get wheelspin or she just squats down and takes off. Just curious if there is something about the wheel base or weight distribution on a fatboy that makes it harder.

 

To accomplish a wheelie on any type of motorcyle, the nut that connects the handle bars to the seat has to be very loose....

 

Thats funny it looks like my ttr 225

 

No argument there. This is just posted for fun, not something I plan on doing on a regular basis.

 

here ya go!!

VERY FUNNY! I'm no engineer, but maybe it has to do with a combination of the rear suspension, and the rake of the front end. Dynas and baggers both have less rake than a Night Train, or Softail Custom, Standard, or Deuce.....not sure about the Fatboy.

 

slip the clutch... you'll get the wheel off the ground.

 

Nah dude im sure its the same thing we have to do on a quad just pop the clutch usually around something like 25% reved and pop the clutch or from a moving go pop hahahahahahaha im tooo chicken **** to do it with my wheelie bars on my sled hahahaa

 

It's just not gonna happen 750lbs of bike with a belt not chain = slippage!

I tried it once and my belt slipped.... CLUNK! CLUNK! ... after i heard that i never tried it again....lol.. true story.

Sure miss the days of my CBR and wheelies.

 

Good luck. Post a video of your attempts.
