I need a How To

[Nuage420b]

I can wheelie just from shifting hard and what not but its no more than 1-2 feet. I wanna learn how to ride one out.

use the rear brake; i can wheelie the big ones by steppin on the rear brake, while revin the rpms, then dump the clutch as i let off the rear brake,,,

If you have seen my video in the giveaway thread I can ride them out to 100mph 1st through 3rd. The trick is to learn to shift in a wheelie.. I DO NOT RECOMMEND unless you are aware of the consequenses and cover that rear brake.. it is not hard to loop these bikes switching gears.

I would find an empty area and do slow first gear clutch ups until you are comfortable.

The objective is uber smooth throttle adjustments once you are at or near balance point. Low air pressure in the rear tire will help keep the bike going straight and not falling to the side.

Also. these bikes run out of revs quick and you want to bring the front end down softly to avoid blowing out your fork seals... I learned that the hard way.

Good luck and be safe!! and for pete sake.. wear all the gear you can get your hands on. And also watch some youtube vids of squids looping their bikes over... it is not pretty and your bike will be so f'd up if you do it.

SMOOTH throttle like Trill mentioned my first dump was from plipping the throttle and literally hopping my bike up off the ground and over backward. All in first gear.

IMO it would be best to learn simply how to clutch it or pop the front end in 1st gear then go to 2nd gear to learn the actual wheelie, 1st gear is touchy if your not sure of what your doing. In second you are going faster but there is more control as the throttle isnt as harsh as in 1st gear.

i can lift the front 1-2 and 2-3 with just the throttle pinned. what will happen if i pull up? i heard some people say to bounce the front down and then pull up and throttle it to let the forks assist in the lifting?
