-1 +10, you'll still go 100mph. Stock filter, anything else sucks.

Re: best wheelie sprocket combination

i cant quite clutch it up yet, a guy i know revs it up to 11 grand in second goin about 35 mph and then just drops it ... thats how he clutches it... is that how im supposed to do it, im just now gettin into "stunting" i guess you could say, only minor wheelies and stoppies but i cant quite clutch it up yet, a little advice wouldbe nice, i know there is a whole sticky thread thing but that one is a little confusing

just ride your bike and have fun with it. you will eventually start wheelying well or crash trying, some ppl got it and some ppl dont. we can tell you everything u want to know but its not going to transfer over from your brain to your body anyway. you have to learn it for yourself. just know that everything that is being done in the stunt world can be done on a stock bike(minus certain hb tricks), u dont need gearing. you need a natural ability to balance yourself and a 100+hp machine on one wheel. if u dont have natural ability then u need a bank account and the will to get up and try again after you flip that **** down the road a few times. good luck, be safe, wear a helmet, bring a camera, show us the footage.
