Talking HELP!!! Serious stunt assistance required

Hey people, got a question, thinking of investing in a 600. Keeping it small since I only started last year on a 250 Ninja.
I did the little tricks last year and I'm planning on moving up.
What I want to know is this:
Can a 96 Yamaha YZF600r do wheelies???
Plain and simple but I'm retarded and there isn't a special class in this department for me.
Thanks everyone.
Oh and to the people who think I'm retarded and don't know this. HAHA, j/k

It might be a bit heavier since it's older but with some gearing it should come up.

Is that the bike you are going to get?

Get and F4i if you haen't gotten one yet.

yes, it will come up!!! you have to clutch it up, but it will get there. i had a 98 yzf 600 till i hit a parked undercover police car. now i have a r-1. anyway, yes it will come up.

Welcome to the board.

The gearing thing would be referring to sprockets.

I own one, and yes it will do everything you want it to do. Currently I just repainted mine, so I'll get a new avatar up when I get back to my campus. Oh yeah, the down 1, 2 up sprocket combo works great

just about anything will come up when you clutch it and gearing will definetely help a 600 has plenty of power though

You can order sprokets from any dealer. It may get expensive but you might want to start with one so it's not to dramatic of a change for you. 1 down 2 up is the equivalent to going 7 up in the back. For every tooth you drop in front it's the samw as going up 3 in the back. That's quite a change in performance which my land you on yo azz! So you might want to go 1 down first and get used to it, then later add a 1 up in the back, then get the 2 down sproket after that. Just my

Just take baby steps and realize everyone has their own learning curve.

Anyway, to answer your question - most any bike shop can order it for you.

What the hell math class did you take? 1 down and 2 up equals 5 in the back. 3+2=5
