good one
 
Biaggi's big save was after beating Doohan wasn't it? before Rossi moved to 500s, could be wrong, but I thought it was about 98 or 99.

One of my faves was from the British GP around 1980, Mamola and Roberts, I think Roberts one the race, but when they were on the slowing down lap, they formation wheelied, and Mamola went on further than Roberts. MCN ran a cartoon about 2 bike cops called Mamola and Roberts wheelieing their BMWs after that one! A classic.

Sorry if this post appears a bit vague in places, but as you know, I dont use Google. Poor memory is a far more valid reason for mistakes than inability to type into a search engine correctly!

It was def. before wee Rossi was around, and def. earlier than 1998. i have '96 in my head. but i could be totally wrong. There was another topic on this maybe last year, where we all pulled our thumbs out and figured out the year but i can't find it now.

katt i think biaggi was still ridin 250s in 96. was his last year.... i think
<


think it was 98 was max's first year in 500s i think it was assen 99 that wheelie
 
If you look really carefully at that youtube vid of Max's god-wheelie, he doesn't actually drag tail. He probably just pinched the rear brake to recover before dragging vertebrae.

When rossi stood up on the seat and pulled a wheelie, was that Jerez 2003? i remember melandri trying to do it when he won his first motogp race in turkey

Rossi's one leg behind is the coolest wheelie.

Hopper does a very good wheelie very straight.
