So after 12 bikes bout 10 years riding . Just learnt to clutch it up in second. And 3rd!! But she gets a bit wobbly coming down !! But always envied those guys who would just touch the clutch and pop it up !! Now I'm 1 !! Yea boy!! Now try not to flip the Blody thing !!
Have to say the more hp u have the easier it is to stunt etc.
IF ITS TO LOUD ! YOUR TOO OLD

And forgive us our lanesplitting
As we forgive the four wheel drives, the volvos and the taxis
And lead us not into gravel corners
But deliver us from hand-held radars
For thine is thy leather, thy denim, thy Gore-Tex and thy Kevlar

Use Ham Fist Power. It's extremely effective when combined with Clutch.
Nice.. did you have someone teach you? Or just gave it a fist full one day? I'm still trying to get the power wheelies going nicely.
Seriously? Give it a go and don't pussy out, you'll be surprised how easy it is.
Moses new a bit about wheelies, There is an 11th Commandment that did fit on the tablet. "Covet thy brake".

My older brother all used to ride when i was a little kid (6 8 + 10 years older than me) all i ever dreamed about was poppin mad wheelies. Like, literally have dreams about it. Soooo good
-- no fate but what we make --
feels good doesnt it?
i always found the clutch ups a lot more consistent than trying to power (ololol it was a 600) wheelie. though she struggled to lift at any kind of speed, really needed a 90 degree corner, traffic lights etc before so i could slow down.
the thou on the other hand.... that clutch still works above 150.
season 2012 is coming.....
How far was your longest one Slipin?
Well done. It won't be long before you'll be saying memorable things like "I've got these wheelies fucking sussed!"
fixed
Moses knew about wheelies but he wasn't that gooda spella.
Yeah I tried it bfor on my 03zx6r and it wouldnt catch and half a sec later the clutch would and just scare the shite outa me !! Doin power wheelies for last 3 months then tday . Longest prob 300m . All on a 1000vtwin mind u !! Looking fwd to really seeing what it can do !!! Give sir sparks alot a run .. Just hard to control the direction . Some times it's sweet .. 300m but other times kerbs are coming at me !!
Just nice to cruz alongside a Holden hsv 350kw car and goin .pop!!! See yaaaa!! Lovin it!! It's like sex !! Just make sure I have my full body leather condom on !! Lol!!

Get the power wheelies goin first . So u learn to balance a bit. Then learn the bikes sweet spot torq wise . Try in second gear first time if ur on a 1000 . Shite happens real quick in 1st . + I learned to change gears on the back wheel whilst power whelin . Helps on the way down so u don't just run outa rpms and hit the deck hard if u start comin down. .

Hahaha I've had my stripple for 2 weeks. The first day I got the bike never to own anything over 250cc, I started trying to clutch it up.
Now I can finally say I have found the balance point haha.
Congrats man.
Killswitch54923 just commit man haha
Formally bren.
If its got wheels or tits, you know it's gonna be trouble.
You realise the SEF* for wheelies is the same as fishing, i.e. 30%.
Did you take this into account in your 300m estimate?
*Standard Embellishment Factor
+1 on using 2nd. if you're coming down a bit hard, just try giving it a bit of gas on the way down and that will make for a much smoother landing (ie easier on the nads)
