Not heard of wheel standing ?

I have managed it a couple of times on my XTR.... BUT
the dam thing is so heavy.. the rear wheel would rarther spin
than grip enough to lift the front... it's a bit hit and miss..
logs up to 250mm arn't a issue.. just the bigger ones...
I have a high pipe & bash plate so landing on the plate
isn't a big prob... but a XTX with low pipes & flimsy
bash plate/pebble deflector could be...
The 17' front wheel is not going to make it easy...

have a go... It may work out ok for yer....
