you know its funny cause me and a friend both had new savages i broke-in both of them and after about 10-12 tanks his would wheelie on demand and mine would do nothing not even close to a wheelie i guess some engines you might just get lucky and get a faster one!!!

It's harder to do wheelies on pavement. On grass, you have the bumpy terrain that helps to get the front end up in the air.

On pavement mine spins all 4 tires off the line. On grass the tires seem to bite better and I get less wheel spin. I think the additional bite in the grass is mostly responsible for the wheelies. It wheelies right off the line before it even rolls so I think the bumpy terrain is not the main reason.
 
I've got the Savage 25 RTR. Stock, except for the Hot Bodies pipe. Can get it to wheelie in the grass on a slight uphill grade. :)

Nice pics! Can I ask what is the purpose of having a a fuel filter in the pressure line?

Gives me more of a buffer just in case fuel heads up the pressure line (because of the Uniflow mod).
