It's not the wheelie as such, but if you're doing it in traffic it might be seen as reckless behaviour. It's hard to steer and brake when you're pulling a wheelie.

How do you bunny hop on a bmx bike?

First you pull the front of the bike up like a catwalk - dont try and wheelie up! Then you lift the back up with your feet - point them down at about 45 degrees and pull upwards. Then you do a bunnyhop. Try and bring the bike level at the peak of the jump with your weight near the back, then come down as level as possible. Don't worry if you can't do it the first try, it took me a couple of hours to do it.

How do you do a j-hop on any Bike?

To do a "J-hop" you need a bike. first pull up like you are about to do a manual or a wheelie, and bring your back up by shifting your weight forward and tilting your strongest foot downward. it takes a lot of practice, but once you get it and you keep doing it it will get higher and higher. A way that really helped me is to do a manual and pull the bars up to your chest, just dont hit it. this will almost force your foot to go downwards.

What is easier bunnyhop or wheelie?

As a BMXer i have learned how to and done both of those things, generally this is how i see it: If your using clips:bunny hops are easier, because you can pull up with your legs to help get extra air, while as it's hard to get out of clips, doing a wheelie with clips can be nerve racking and make it harder to do, especially if your not confident in your skills (plus if you make a mistake, good luck recovering) if your using flat/regular pedals:Wheelie is easier, its much easier to get your weight back and save yourself if you accidentally to too high and flip over. while with bunny hops you basically have to do a wheelie and then push forward on you bike to get the back wheel up (basically you have to learn to do a wheelie to do a bunny hop on flats). hope this helps

Not worth it. Sell the bike as it is and buy the kind of bike you want instead.
