Bike won't wheelie when its warm.....?? I have a 93 900rr that is one down in the front and 3 up in the back. When i fire it up, i can clutch it up at 4grand in first gear with no problems.. it pulls it right up to balance point, but after about 30min. of riding and the bike is completely warmed up, it is impossible to clutch it up. I can't tell if it just isn't getting enough power or if it is getting too much and breaking the back tire free.. I have a really sticky tire though and usually run 15psi. Anyone have this problem? Any ideas on how to fix it?

My buddies 93 900rr did the same thing, sounded like it was catching , but it wasnt. I jumped on and tried to clutch it up and thought maybe the tire was just spinning, but he rode behind me and nothing even happened...its the clutch.
