just recently started trying to do second gear wheelies after getting first down good. Ive tried the same method as clutching up first but all i get is the springs to unload in the front a bit and thats it. The method im using is get going around 35-40 bring the clutch in a bit rev the let the clutch out ive gotten the revs up around 8-9 grand with nothing happening. The bike is a stock 02 f4i if you can help out please do.

 

you need to be going a little faster. hold clutch in let it hit the rev limiter.then dump it. the f41 is weak and heavy it takes some finess to say the least

 

Just Bounce It Up Using The Clutch.just Practice It A Bunch And You Will Get It Down.

 

i wouldnt say f4i's are weak...... you could bring up a highchair in second if you weighed over 200lbs no problem... its all about finesse


and DONT hold the clutch in til it hits the limiter then drop it... i hope that guy was jokin when he said that

 

^^ +1 ya you shouldnt need to rev it up nearly that high, just a lil blip with a good bounce and the front end should be skyward. Its all in the timing of your bounce and clutch release. Are you standing up or sittin down?? i would suggest standin up in stagger position if you feel comfortable with it ... my PEACE

 

no im trying it sitting down tried a differnet route today tried just bouncing it up with out the clutch didnt anywhere with that. tried bouncing with the clutch need to get better with my timing just got the front springs to unload a bit might of gotten up a little but didnt feel like it. any more good ways

 

it really is all in the timing and plenty of PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE! wear your gear and be careful!

 

give it more gas each time til the front comes up to where you are ok with it and work it like that.

 

+1 that's how I have been learning them, was doing the same thing you are for a while. Increase your revs when the clutch is in a little more each time and it will come up. . .move your *** all the way back as well, once you get it it get easier and easier to do.

 

+1
+1

 

just keep working at it it will happen but please dont hold the clutch until it reaches the rev. limit if you still cant get it change out the spockets
