02 F4i wheelie help

my sprocket are 2 up in the rear and 1 down in the front. what gear is best? i usually try it in 2nd now (clutch), i can get it up but cant hold it steady at the BP. does anyone know how far back the BP is on the f4i? and what rpms do i clutch it up at and how fast should i be going? ive been riding for nearly 5 years. have had the f4i for a little over a year. can't seem to get it to work out. any hints/tips would be appreciated. this may be a repost (sorry if it is), but i searched and couldnt find one on here.

Man you suck!!! Na I'm just messin w ya.. **** my f4i wheelies by it self, I don't even gotta do nothin but hang on.. Hahaha but really, the slower ur going the better for ur healths sake. And stock gearing is harder to pop up but easier to ride out, the more u gear it up the easier itl pop up, but if u can't balance ul never keep em up.. Quit readin n typin n go ride! N don't be scared to tear up ur bike, just make sure u know how to get off n the hell out the way n don't tear ur self up!

learn throttle control, and start using your brake, and you will be fine!

use first gear. clutch it up and just chase it over and over again tell you get the feel of it and bring it up higher and higher. F4i BP is when the forks are level. If it takes you a long time maybe practice on a mountain bike or mini bike. Something your not scared of. what ever you do dont blame it on the bike.

I second that notion. Don't be so concerned about what rpm's you need to be at. Just practice and you'll get the feel for it. You really don't even need to see the rpm's. Same on a fiddy. Balance point on fiddys is super fun, but you never know how fast you are going or what rpm you're at, its all how you feel.

Have you tried changing out your power band for the black/red one?!
