    I was doing a wheelie in the street and revved it alittle too much and bike flipped out from under me. I went to pick up the bike and i guessed i accidentally revved it and it took of throwing me into some gravel. I have a gash in my forearm and a cut on my knee and sore tailbone. I had gear on so saved me from worse. My bike though has a bent silencer and subframe. Got the subframe bent back pretty good but silencer is pretty bad :( gonna have to ride like that though casue dont have money for new one!

    Thats bike riding and sounds like you survived OK and that is the good part ...

    --
    Through the yrs, the crashes hurt more and more and about the last crash I had in the Desert 100 in WA hurt really bad, nothing broke on me, but I decided then and there that my crashes had to cease ... Also got tired of screwing my bike up also ..

    Good luck and ride safer :0

    First rule of wheelies- Cover that rear brake!
    Once you've flipped over backwards (been there, done that) you'll never forget rule number one.
    Post up a pic of that silencer, maybe'll get you some ideas on how to fix it/make it a bit more presentable till you can get a new one.
    Most of all, don't stop wheelying, it's one of the great things in life.

    Hahah well it popped up so fast I slid off the back before I could get the rear brake. My bike doesn't have a power valve so it doesn't have much down low and have to keep the revs up. I'll try to get some pics tonight only one I have is this

    A '91 WXE260 has a power valve. Is yours not functioning? Original tests did say the extra 10 cc's of the 260, made the bike hit harder that the WXE250.
