    I'm not much of a busa fan, or sport bikes in general for that matter, but let's see you lift the front end of your xs at 160-180 mph...

      Heck, if you could get 499 HP out your XS11 engine you COULD lift the front wheel at that speed too. Assuming you could get it geared high enough to get up there or raise the redline enough.

          I think if you could get it to push out 180mph, you could pull it up at 140...without any problem...would have to have some hellatiously strong gears for when you clutch it up...

          I'm up for trying to get that kinda speed outta it...i'll even ride it at that speed...but i don't have the nads to do the wheelie at that speed...but if yall wanna do it...i'll donate the use of my bike to get it done...and i'll let someone ride it to pull the wheelie too and I'll record it...but i dont have the money to set the bike up for it...
