Other than your back? Anything you land on would be my guess haha. Suspension would probably wear out faster depending on how hard you come down...but keep in mind that trying to do slow wheelies is harder than doing fast 'power' wheelies...and unless you have someone who knows what he/she is doing, odds are you'll dump the bike.

Especially with the 250, since there's no automatic wheelie button like on the bigger bikes....this would fall into the range of skilled stunting. Doing a wheelie with a 250 requires a fair bit of skill and balls IMO. If you're interested in trying this either be prepared to dump the bike, or try and seek experienced help...which may still result in you dumping the bike. Either way, strip the bike before you try this.
