[ST] crashes and wheelies



 >>> he couldnt take his fingers off the grips to grab the brake, and
that this tackiness caused the throttle to stick open. <<<

    I'll give him the sticky fingers (reluctantly) but the throttle
wouldn't close??  And most important,... he couldn't pry his thumb
off the grip to hit the kill switch???  

 >>> he had looped it at an intersection, cause he didn't know how to
stop a wheelie by using the clutch and tried to blame the accident on
the bike. <<<

    Please,... please guys,... don't try to control a wheelie with
the CLUTCH!  Wheelies are controlled with the REAR BRAKE!  And try to
have your toe on it before the wheelie starts.
