Funny how the Hyper was puking oil after a couple of wheelies on Superbikes. I guess it doesn't like stuntas

me neither

AMEN. I couldn't understand that either. The hypermotard not wheelying is like finding out flipper couldn't swim. IT WAS MADE FOR IT. I have never ridden a bike so prone to wheelying. I think maybe it had to much oil in it. Lost the little respect I had for superbikes. Oh well

That's not the first time it's happened on Super Bikes. They had the same problem last year on another episode when Jason was riding one. Maybe it's the length of time they keep the wheelie going.

Jason said it would happen and he used to stunt Ducs, so he would know....I have no idea.

I just watched it, that looked like a ton of oil. Where exactly is it coming from? Breather line where?

I ride wheelies all the time including some 1/2 milers at 75mph. Mine has never puked oil. I think the difference is that they are standing that bike up at 12 o'clock. My wheelies are alot more like 10-11 o'clock.

Out!
