Ditto on the congrats. That's a serious jump in hardware lol.

I have never personally tried to wheelie my Hawk, although I have got the wheel to come up a tiny bit when I try. I just have to shift my big heavy but back in the seat and give it a little tug.

My VFR on the other hand, I have wheelied it entirely on accident in first and second gear. Power on wheelies and launch wheelies tend to open your eyes when you don't expect them. When you lift the front of a nearly 600lb bike with just shy of 200hp and 100ft-lbs, it's quite the experience. I should have reminded myself that I had the restrictions removed from first and second (stock is limited to 100hp via electronic throttles).

You should post up some pictures of your KTM.
