Alot of people use your method . I think it will eventually do damage to the trans. from all the false nuetral drops .

That is why i'm thinking of getting a manual clutch . Then the clutch will just wear out

I have done it a few times and it probably will kill the life in your clutch but why? Just get a pipe and Jet it with a TBR air filter and it will have that pop your looking for.....its just easy to rip in any gear just roll it back and hit the break.

It won't hurt anything. All it does is slip the clutch just like you do on a big bike to wheelie.

Thumbs up Re: Is clutching wheelies up bad for my 50

Good to know it won't hurt the trans. :YEAH

But it will burn the clutch , right ? Not when coastin' , but when doing it to pop the wheel up
