Or he may have stretched it a little .
why would i make it up? i was in second i got on the throttle, then pulled up on the handle bars while shifting and popping the clutch the bike went up really easy and fast maybe its a bigger sprocket then 47, if 47 is stock. i told the guys at the suzuki shop i wanted a bigger back sprockt and it looked alot biger then the one that was on. beleive what you want. i know what i did, and i know why im out of work for 3 weeks lol

So how much damage did you do to the bike? Any pics?

You forgot to ask what size the front sprocket was...

shawn026, search for the RIP JASON05 thread. He started the exact same way. We laid him to rest just a few months ago, after about a year of riding.

[MDNTRDR]

well that sucks i hope that you get better and i seriously hope that you learned something from this i think that you might swap the original sprocket back on its there for a reason i dont mean to offend but it looks like youve learned an expensive lesson youve been riding for three months come on man life is long and if you dont take some time to learn about what your doing yours wont be

It's called enabling. And, yeah, we are guilty. Mea culpa.

I pledged to do better. Really. Not blowing smoke here, notice no smilies?

I have 14/50 and can't bring it up in 2nd if i rev to 9 and dump it

Never try a wheelie on an unfamiliar bike/right after a change. Just accelerate lightly, and progress harder till she comes up.

I'll never understand why wheelies are so taboo. Just make sure you don't hurt anyone else.
