Be careful where you do a power wheelie. On ramps to freeways are fine as long but watch out for areas near gas stations. Some cars/trucks spill fuel when getting onto the ramp making power wheelies scary. I had hot tires but spun my rear wheel twice due to oil/fuel on the road when taking off. I wanted to show the Newbies what can happen. If you are smooth, the rear tire just spins. If you are not smooth, you may crash.

  • You have no clue why it spun tire. I would say pressure has something to do with it, as well as a worn center section that has been heat cycled many many times. Not to mention your probably not able to comprehend the forces behind the whole thing so I won't blind you with science, but, the force exerted on the rear wheel is plenty to break a tire free if you do it wrong and things are not adjusted properly.

  • @toctuning .....please blind me with your "vast" science knowledge. I'm an Engineer and totally understand the forces involved.

  • At what minute does it happen?

  • @CaptSaveAHo3 at 21s and 23s you can see that I just spin my back tire even though it is hot.  There must have been oil/gasoline on the road.

  • you might be leaning too far forward. try leaning, or sitting back some, next time.

  • useless video

  • @CBRskisnow I know a guy who had a cbr600rr 05, they are just natural traction breakers it seems, he was riding for probably 4 hours & still broke loose on a Pilot Pure rear tire 900mi on it, he would spin everytime he went WOT or tried to clutch it up.

  • Oil and gasoline really only become a problem when there is a light rain .. That makes the oil float on top of the water and becomes very very slippery basically like ice ..

  • @CBRskisnow huh, i find it hard to believe there was a 20 or so foot long stretch of "gas or oil"... that you mysteriously did not see, and if there was one you would have yawed slightly to one side or another. i think your clutch slipped orr maybe you have a shit tire.. like a shinko lol. hah you tought us "Newbies" alot thanks lol
