If you spun a crank bearing, send the crank to falicon. They can fix it for you. The same goes for the cams. If the cyl. are scored, get a set of big bore pistons and bring the cyl. and pistons to Eislies Machine shop(off Broadway). They can bore it for you. If they arent scored, just replace the rings while your in there as a safety measure. Busa pistons are a good option if the cyl. walls are not scored, but try to stay with a lighter cast piston(stk busa) as opposed to a heavier forged piston(aftermarket busa). You'll loose HP with heavier pistons. While your at it you might as well us a thinner head gasket to increase compression.
If you need any help, let me know.

Not a problem for normal riding, but they arent good for prolonged wheelies.
They are GREAT race bikes though... ask anyone

RC51 is the same way, doesn't like to be on one wheel for long at all. Got to be something with v-twins.

ITs the location of the oil pick-up in the pan. All or most of the suzuki's are in the front so when doing a wheelie it is not picking any oil up and lubricating the engine. I think the newer GSX-R's have the problem resolved though.

a friend of mine used to have a TL1000 and would wheelie it for days. so its not just the v-twin. the pick-up sounds right to me.
