I can't pop a wheelie in second gear on my 05 GSXR 600. I slip the clutch and catch a tad bit of air but I would have to roll on the throttle really really hard to have it come up at all. I bounce the bike and it comes up but only a few inches. What am I doing wrong??? Also, is there a "how to pop 2nd gear wheelie clips online"?

 

u just gotta keep practicing.

 

its not really a roll on motion for me.. i gotta give it a nice ol twist. but dont do to much to fast or u'll be on your back. just try it over and over, keep the rpm's up then just pop and twist. take a bit to get used to. ive been wheelin few days now and im gettin it down alright. takes time.

practice and give it more gas... baby steps.. try standing too

 

Do I just pop the clutch??? No need to bounce the bike?? I'm on a GSXR 600. Also, do I need to pull the clutch all the way in? <---(I usually use only 1 finger to pull the clutch in.) Also, what rpm or speed should I be going before the bike can catch some air?

 

Im ridin on a 900rr. 1 tooth down in the front and stock rear. What i found out is if i bring my speedo up to 60mph/6500rpm, pull the clutch in(1 finger all you should use) and pull the throttle while letting out the clutch up it goes without a problem. Thats my second gear wheelies, dunno about anyone else. and try doing a stagard stance. it does feel VERY awkward at first but do it in first gear a couple tries then see how it feels in second. its MUCH more comfortable and easier to balance/steer.

 

keep practicing and sit all the way back on your seat it will help alittle

 

false.. hug your tank.. less wobbles that way.. n yes pull it in all the way.. burning the clutch wont help

 

When I raise it in 2nd I try to make my arms feel like they have very little downpressure against the bars then as I slip the clutch and yank like you want it to come up get a good slip on the clutch keep your body moving as it comes up raise it to bp. Timing is everything practice it will come.

 

i have a f4i. I bounce the **** out of mine and give it a good amount of gas. It took me awhile to get it up to decent bp but now I can't believe how easy I can do it. I just bounce and right when I start to come out let the clutch out while revvin it prettty good and it comes straight up. Only reason it took me so long is because I was used to doing 1st gear wheelies and didnt wanna loop it. But you definately have to rev it up more in second gear.

 

So it goes like this: Pull clutch in-bounce-drop the clutch-and rev the **** out of it? I won't loop it unless I roll the throttle back all the way right...??? Or can I loop the bike going 45mph? What speed should I hit this at???

 

That is true close to the tank and push down and pull up and dump the clutch even in s sit down if u r doing stand ups then bouse that B!t[h and the dump the clutch

 

u need to get the feel for the bike, i can tell with the ? u r asking. r u tring to us the rar brake at all(not really to slow it donw just to be safe?

 

Haven't used the rear brake at all. Tried standing on a couple of 1st gear ones but I'm more comfortable doing them sitting down. I can ride 1st gear wheelies out with just the throttle but I haven't touched the rear brake yet. I can't shift gears when doing wheelies either. Should I start practicing how to stand on my 1st gear wheelies before I move on to second gear?

 

I've wheelied two 600 gixxers a newer one and a older one, just more gas and the clutch, no need to bounce or anything. just get use to it through practice.

 

it's all about the timing. but i suggest you better learn 1st gear and RB first...

 

I think 2nd is way easier. There is more chance of you looping it in first. I'd just keep giving it more and more gas til it comes. That bike should have no problem.

 

just keep practicing and you will get it just cover the brake and take it slow..

 

just remember not to pull it so hard when u go back to first

 

wow.. dont even try.. ride more first.. the point is to rev while the clutch is in.. you can loop at any speed
