I wouldn't get nearly that worried about it. 1st gear is probably the only gear it would pull a wheelie when you weren't trying to do it. If you keep your body weight in the normal position you will be fine. I doubt your bike will even do a wheelie in 3rd with just throttle, even with trying. The thing that would worry me the most about that bike as a 1st bike is the weight. That was made a few years before they started shaving weight off the 1000's.

Even though we don't always get along the greatest, I would still rather show you some skills versus having you go down. So my offer stands. Erik would probably go with us too. Maybe we should have a DSMStyle ride?
