Rode the neighbor kids bike yesterday.

So yesterday, I'm sitting in the garage enjoying a cigar while my wife is off visiting the neighbors. The neighbors grandson was visiting and had his Kawasaki KX65 with him. My wife sent him over to the house to show me the bike. He offered to let me ride it. How could I refuse, a 5'11", 210lb guy on a little 65cc 2 stoke, lol.

Anyway, I took off down the back field, hit 2nd at full song and the front end came off the ground. I forgot how fun and fast 2 strokes can be. Wishing the NC could lift the front as easily, lol.

To do wheelies at highway speeds it takes a bike with around 1000cc, and yes I know some 600cc performance bikes can do it also. So, don't try the NC700 at highway speeds.

Believe me the NC700 can do wheelies. Start rolling in 1 gear, at about 5 miles per hour either in 1st or 2nd gear (depending on how fast you want the front end to pop up), pull in the clutch, come on with the throttle, and then pop the clutch. Use your throttle to control everything, and don't give it too much throttle or over backward you will come! Heck my scooter even does wheelies. I ain't seen a bike yet, that a short, fat, ugly, old guy could not wheelie!
