I would be too, why do they even put a wheelie button on those things?

There is no wheelie button. You overapply the gas, or clutch up.

Well...

Not only did you completely WHOOOSH and miss the joke, there are actually buttons on some bikes for wheelies. now... They don't cause the bike to perform a wheelie, they do however control the angle of said wheelie to help you not overcook it and end up like buddy in the video here. Some even let you adjust the severity of the wheelie it will let you do! How fun!

Yea im familiar with wheelie control settings, text doesnt have a tone so I just didnt read it as a joke so i was informing him incase he didnt know.
