Hey everyone

My name is Katie and I have been ridiing for a little over a year...started on a 600 and have learned plenty of lessons in the meantime.

I am not going to call myself a stunter but I did do a wheelie on purpose for once the other day.

I finally got the ***** to crack it back hard enough to bring the front end up. Probably a foot off the ground and then i thought "sweeeet" this is easy

so i cracked it back even harder and one of my friends swears i was looking at the sky:-))

i crapped my pants and it came down abruptly...

THANK GOD i let go of the throttle

anyway, i think i smiled my *** off the whole day from that point on.

I would love to be able to do one, with confidence and knowing what I am doing rather then just trying stuff out here and there.


So does anyone have any tips....I'm not trying to do a 12 O'clock or anything...just a basic sit down wheelie....
or ofcourse if there is a thread about this already can someone point me to it...
:D

 

try this thread from gixxer.com...it's a wheelie 101

Good luck with the wheelies and have fun.
