I always hate busy intersections like that. We have one here at the local mall, where I have to turn left (north bound traffic), while first crossing the south bound lanes. Traffic is usually heavy around the times I leave (rush hr). I'll usually make a right, then do two lefts. It may take a few min longer, but ultimately safer.

As for wheelies. I've yet to have the front end off the ground on this thing. I've accelerated hard a number of times too. Flies are out, and an areap pipe is installed. Perhaps the OP was just a tad overzealous with the throttle...
