Can you expand on this a bit? Have not heard of this before. I think I understand what a torsion damper is but I do not know what type the GS has. Guessing this leads to an expensive repair when it fails? How much abuse can they take? And what is it about wheelies that is so bad for them, compared to other hard on and off road riding? Trying to understand my new bike, thanks.
The rubber torsion/vibration damper is part of the driveshaft. The rubber is vulcanized to the inner and outer metal parts. Excessive torque will break the bond and the shaft will no longer transmit power to the final drive. Replacement of the driveshaft is the only fix.

You should probably remove your helmet too. It helps lower the weight the bike has to lift and increases your balance.This is the fun in bikes! The front end will lift quite often. There are alot of roads near me in NC that makes both wheels lift even while going the speed limit....
Also, I do not do wheelies in traffic. I'm a responsible motorcyclist. But I do make good use of the overgrown abandon parking lots.
