Wingman- wheelie advice...

Yo Winga- Thanks for the tips last night at dunks, on the way home i played with the clutch while doing around 55-50 in 2nd on the highway and learned where to bring the wheel to. Today I played with it again for a couple hours and I am feeling in control while i get it up. now i can do it from 40-60 and hold it for about 300-400 feet on evarage....could prolly go longer, but im not gonna push it, im gonna slowly perfect it......

Thanks Bro!

Re: Wingman- wheelie advice...

Ok fellas.....I have a question.....

Im getting it up at around 45 and excellerating up to about 80-90 over the course of 500 feet. I have been doing it very smooth, and I feel like I have good control while lightly throttling up and down...but I wanna learn how to do it not as fast.

The question is this; How can I do the same wheelie without excellerating? I would love to keep it at a consistant 50-55 while riding it.

By not taking advice from someone with 10 posts that can even adjust their chain. You need to practice, practice, practice and when you're done with that, practice somemore.

What Gear are you in, and what do you have for sprockets. We can only give proper advice with the correct information.
