Amazing the bike got hurt, since most klxs don't even have enough power to do a wheelie.

Exactly guys, buying a bike and not riding is what I would call stupid lol..

Racegass, it really does have enough power to wheelie lol.. I tried for about 4 years and finally got to balance point two days ago.. Really happy that I finally got it correct..

Finger_Mullet, at the balance point It feels as if I can take it for as far as I want.. It really does feel comfortable up there..

Back brake did save me alot these few days lol!

I'l get the pics up in awhile!

Actually riding wheelies on the "tarmac" is the best place to wheelie. If the road is dry, it's consistent.

Looks like all the damage can be taken care of just replacing parts, besides the swingarm scratch & straightening the plate + plus a little subframe work.

Wheelies are pretty easy even with 15 x 46 sprockets on the te450.....I just need to drop the c/s sprocket to a 13 on the klx...gotta love the engine braking on a 4 stroke.
