Oh Shyt...

Re: Oh Shyt...

try and control the wheelie with 90% throttle and only 10% brake

if you clutch it up and bam! catch it with the brake that will be good once you've got it down, but throughout the learning process you will probably be too hard on the brake and thats what will cause the jerkiness.

the only thing sprockets will do for you is enable you to go 2mph instead of 9mph before your motor wants to stall

Re: Oh Shyt...

pop it up in 1st with idle set to 3k, catch it with brake and let off the thottle completely(maybe even take your hand off and grab some fairing). keep doing this until you get the front to where the idle will just catch and carry you. It'll take a few trys but you'll get it. As far as sprockets go, G nice rocks nh all day long at the spot on his stock f4ezy! just keep at it!!!

Because.. a lil far fetched sometimes. 20mph, second gear, stock sprockets, just started riding wheelies couple weeks ago. This all doesn't add up!! BUT If you can do it more power to you! you must be rockn that **** past balance point and slipn the sh** outta the clutch

I'm not saying you cant do it but my 6 wont even come up till about 25mph that means i'm probly doing about 35 to 45 buy the time i get it balanced, thats pretty good if you can get 2nd at 20mph dam

You can make any 600 come up from a dead stop, you just have to give it more gas and more clutch. I could clutch up my F4i from a dead stop to ballance point.

No where did that guy say he was doing that, someone just suggested to him that he should learn that way, and you pretty much called bs on riding idle at 3k on a gsx-r on stock gears.

Re: Oh Shyt...

Popping up a bike in 2nd gear and getting it down to 20 AS A BEGINNER is hard on any bike.

All I gotta say is start out in 1st gear, crank the idle up to 4k - 4500 and PRACTICE your A$$ off. Practice rippin the bike up, and catching it on the back brake. Once you know you can catch the bike, now start catching the bike while using some throttle. Work towards feathering the throttle and using as little brake as possible. Practice that for as long as your arms can take it, then practice more!!

Once you think you've got it down pat, you don't... go do it again for an hour!
