so yesterday im f ing around waiting for my friend to warm up him bike so im at bp in 1st gear and click it into 2nd and slam right on my *** before i could even think about it....then today try it a few time low speed 2nd gear bp wheelies front end drops clicking into 3rd, so now im 2nd gear bp have quite a bit of speed, towards the top of 2nd gear and click it into 3rd and slam back on my *** again. is there a better way to try this?

 

pratice just cruzin 1st gear around once u get ur brake control down a real good then maybe start trying to shift but even then there is no real rason to be shiftin gears the only tim i shift is when i am doing coasters i'll push tthe shifter up to nuetral so i can rev the bike and then i'll let out and i'll be in 3rd and i'll just keep crusin the wheelie thats the only time i shift but just practice and u'll get it

 

1st to 2nd is notorious for throwing everyone on their ***. I don't even try it anymore after it did it to me a long time ago.

 

bro check it out when you click it up to next gear lean foward a little and you have to smack the brake lever hard right after swicthing gears and it gonna feel squirrlely but if you can keep it up straighten t out oh you can aslo cover the hell out of the brake in first and get use to it whiping up into second and stomping the brake you wil stomp less and become more confiedent after a couple tries i now all about the turtle move looks like a tutlre on his back bad way to wreck to hope that helps bro

 

NO NO NO,,,,,,Just don't do it.....as Ucan C it's not worth it crashing at that speed your luck will run out eventually.....Learn throttle control in 1st then all other gears are easy and the rear brake is a MUST!!!!1!

PS Just my opinion glad u r OK!11

 

ya tryin to shift from 1 to 2 is how i learned to scrape my 12 bar no joke. i went back so fast i didnt know what happened i was just slidin on my 12 bar for the first time. now i can scrape cause im confident that the bar will be there no matter how hard or fast i hit it.

 

its all in the bag now just keep tryin

 

Haha did you think this was a different forum Frank? Their isn't that much speed going into 2nd gear on a 50

 

big bike guys ahhahaha just kiddng bro you got bigger ***** then me

 

Good Stuff^^^ this is what i did to get used to it.



2nd to 3rd can be done, its easier than 1st to 2nd, just bring it back enough where you really don't need to use the throttle to keep it up, almost like a coaster but actually letting the bike rev down itself. once the rpms drop click it up and keep that foot on the rear brake. i've seen 1st to 2nd but you gotta go slow as sh*t to do it

 

damn bro now that i think about it your right almost likea coaster to get ready to shift true that

 

Intill i learned how to cover the brake, i was on my *** all the time.

Now i can hold it open and shift to 2nd or 3rd.... no prob!

Took 1 weekend and a purple *** to get it though.....

 

Also wait a second before you let the shifter back down so the rpms drop little.

 

exactly, 1st to 2nd you need to be going pretty slow and letting the front end start to fall... 2nd to 3rd is way easier and can be done in a much wider RPM range, i usually let the front start to barely fall from a coaster like state and then jsut click up... i can go all 3 gears now in a wheely... the first few times i tried it i busted my a$$ hard, but with a little practice it's cool as hell to be able to just click up the next gear and walk off from your friend who wheely'ing next to you ... now if i could only figure out how to downshift on one wheel i'd be pimpin

 

when ur in 3rd in a wheelie , pull it past 12 and ride the brake a little and down shift. , now ur pimpin!

 

yea i hesitate b4 i try one because 2/3 tries ill loop it...so i just do reall fast wheelies in first on my 70 which is good enough!

 

NAAA!!!

Just trying to get U out some day!!!! on a big bike!!!

 

I haven't looped one yet but I have hit the brake hard enough that I almost ate the handlebars. They seem really inconsistant for me. Sometimes the bike will let me shift into second and sometimes it won't. So far I have only been able to shift 1-2-3-2-1 in a wheelie about 5 times. First to second is the only shift I ever really have trouble with. Lately I really like doing a wheelie in second gear then rocking it back into a coaster, slow it down, shift it to first, then go straight into circles.
