The last time I tried to really wheelie a bike I was maybe 15 or 16. I was behind
a car at a stop sign and I dumped my clutch from a standstill. My little Honda
stood up on the tail light and I fell off the back, I still had a hand or two on the
bars and somehow I managed to wrestle it down into the ditch without tipping it
over.
That's the closest I've ever came to tipping a motorcycle. Granted only one car
saw me, but instead of looking "cool" I felt like an asshole.
I guess my two points are: you can easily over do clutching a wheelie, and if you
crash where people can see you the embarrasment easily outweighs any sort of
smile you'd get by pulling a trick off.
