welcome to stuntlife newbie!
uummm, here's my way, but there are others who know much more than I.
1. Get some frame sliders for it
2. Grow some *****
3. Learn the basics of stunting first, wheelies, endos, balance points, rear brake control, clutch control, that sorta thing.
4. If you want to get real serious, you could get a cage and a 12 bar and all that, but usually your first stuntbike gets turned into a beater really quick. Learn how to scrape the tail before worrying about a bar. Don't expect to keep the bike looking mint when starting either. Look into gearing too, but it all depends upon how serious you are. And if your about to crash, if all else fails, ditch the bike! don't be a hero and try to save it, you'll hurt yourself even more.

Brother, you sound like you're in a very happy place. Switch the computer off, and enjoy it.

damn dude you sure like to laugh a lot at your own sayings. Do you answer back when you talk to yourself? And listen to covertwar he knows what he is talking about, on this subject. He was in the same situation as yourself. We all told him to give up and that he was a loser. Hang in there and someday you might be as good as that dick head covertwar.

how to prep f4i for wheelie 101:
Steps to good wheelie
1) check oil, check water, lube chain, install duct tape and zip ties where needed. fix holes and frame breaks w/ JB weldŽ the best cold weld on the market today

B) sit on bike and make sure you look cool. Ask a friend to check it out. once you have reaffirmed coolness you can move on to step 3

3) While looking cool (helps people think you know what you're doing) start the motor, let motor reach normal operating temperature. Once it has reached normal op temp pull in cluctch and click into 1st gear...all the while giving nods to the hot chickies near by.....now you're ready for the next step...we'll call that step D, for no particular reason.

D) wind that mill up to the rev limiter and dump the clutch. hang on and stare at the ladies...if bike gets away from ya...repair your body then, begining w/ step one...repeat until girlies give up the puss

if you are serious about riding wheelies run your oil 1/2 quart over what it says.

prep of f4i for wheelies

thanks the replies were helpfull.

if i increase the number of teet on rear sprocket and reduce them on front will that make wheeli easer?? if yes how many to be changed for a no-skill beginner?

should i do something about the rear shock, softer of harder?

does the amount of air on rear tire matters? if yes what should it be?

i will send everybody some pictures of me crashing soon.

thanks
