The Wheelie Machine Experience
What is the experience?
The Max Up Wheelie Machine is an exhilarating experience that combines the thrill and skill it takes to perform a wheelie on a live motorcycle in either a 15 or 30minute experience. Doesn't sound a lot? A good wheelie is usually held for around 11 seconds. The time slot will give you a good length of time to experience and work on your technique.
As the engine starts up, you prepare yourself and with a twist of the throttle, your back wheel spins up and you have lift off!
​
As the motorbike begins to tilt backward, you are now 'popping a wheelie' on a powerful motorcycle with no risk of tipping the bike over, damaging you or the bike in this exciting experience.
The adrenaline kicks in as you find yourself balancing on just the back wheel at an up to 75 degree angle, a twist of the throttle here, a push of the back brake there, you will learn to balance your wheelie and perfect that balance point for sustained and length wheelies. Practice makes perfect!
Each manoeuvre feels like a dance between you and the machine, requiring precise control and coordination to maintain your balance and avoid taking the bike into any dangers zones. The engine roaring, the exhaust growling, you are balancing the bike with the front wheel high in the air... it all makes for an unforgettable experience that's both thrilling and empowering.
​
Whether you're a seasoned rider or just looking for a unique thrill, the Max Up Wheelie Machine offers an adrenaline-packed adventure that will leave you craving more.

Health and Safety Briefing

Instructional Brief
You will go through 2 types of wheelies. 'Clutch Up' and 'Bounce Up/Power Wheelies' the main focus for beginners will be bounce up wheelies. This is a simple process of allowing the bike to roll at a steady speed in gear before compressing the forks and using the spring ramp to get the bike in the air, then it's over to you with the throttle and back brake.
Now it is on to the motorbike!
You will now put your instructional brief in to practice! Along with a staff member by your side, you will begin to get the bike in the air. Don't worry, the Max Up staff member will be on hand to offer tips and tricks to assist you throughout.
Finish
Your experience will come to a close and you will alight the bike after having any pictures you wish to have taken. You will then be able to have a picture with the 'Max Up Wheelie Machine' Trophy and spread the word!
