nature of the beast. wheelies/stoppies do terrible things to clutches,suspension. you wanna play, you must pay.

Doggy's right! If you are going to hot rod, it's gonna break. You have to be willing to sacrifice time and money for repairs if you are going to thrash your bike. What did you break? Was it the clutch?

Reread homie, he said he broke in the motor and now he is ready to bash it a bit.

Wheelies can be done pretty well on the 250,but the only way to minimize damage to the clutch is to power it up, which means your gonna have to be moving pretty good to get it in the power band. Its still hard on the suspension and the extra speed garantees serious damage/injury if you make a mistake.
