Re: z400 wheelie question

I ride my "long wheelies" in 4th or 5th gear, 1st,2nd, and 3rd gear just seem to low to me to ride far wheelies, all it seems to do is rev. 4th and 5th gear are best gears for me to do wheelies in for distance.

Re: z400 wheelie question

usually when i do long wheelies im doin a seat stander in 3 or 4. if im sittin down i will start 3 or 4, sometimes ill shift into 5, but usually the only reasons im doin that is for coasters.
