Re: A ninja 250 and almost any motorcycle can "pop" a wheelie.        

Sit on your motorcycle stopped, I don't care if you weigh 700 lbs. Put the 250 in first year, rev it up to 14000 rpms and drop the clutch. The motorcycle will come right out from under you, you will probably get hurt, and the motorcycle will get damaged.

I weigh 245 right now and can pop a wheelie in second gear. It only takes about 5000 rpms for me to "pop" a wheelie from a stop. Remember that poping wheelies are useless. You want to be able to ride a wheelie.

Remember, wheelies are about riders skill. I'd be willing to say that someone with enough expertise in riding wheelies can ride a wheelie on any motorcycle for practically a unlimited distance. The limitation is rider fituege.
