K6 gsxr? Well if you're on the throttle it should stay going up until you level out the throttle. I'm positive you're not staying on the throttle you'll clutch it and it comes up and you chop the throttle. least i'm guessing

He is right i did the same thing for a week on my bike. i would clutch it up, it would come up about a foot and half then i would chop the throttle. Even though i would tell my self i was not doing it I was. then one day I let the clutch out, did not chop the throttle and stayed in it a little more and the bike stayed up. Don't get to excited though keep rear brake covered, and take baby steps on the whole throttle thing. If your doing sitdowns and the gauge is not in your face your not going to loop it once the gauges are directly in your face your close to bp. Well thats how i looked at it anyways.

Re: Cant keep it up!!!!

OKay so when you say chop the throttle meaning lettting off to quick? Ill try later on today and see wat happens. I have asked around and people say its easier to wheelie standing up than sitting down.I tried standing up but felt really weired in that position,is there a different balance point between the two position?

Re: Cant keep it up!!!!

They may feel different, but balance point is the same sitting or standing. And yes chopping the throttle is when you let off of the throttle. Also when you stand up try to put your left foot on the passenger peg, and your right foot on the front peg. This is called the staggered stance. Just don't put to much pressure on the handlebars when you try to bring it up.

Re: Cant keep it up!!!!

do it staggered, at first it feels weired but you'll get used to it in no time, and when you do you'll love it...
