Re: finding balance point
I said I was a in and out type of BP guy, yeah that's a power wheelie in the avatar, that's how I learned and it helps you to get to know the powerband better rather than clutching. Two different type of rider's, I'm pretty sure you clutch more than anything, so that's what you use the most, think about it.

Re: finding balance point
i don't know either of you, but if you're an in and outta bp rider you won't be able to do it from a power wheelie, unless you're on the edge of looping before you chop the throttle, i call BS too

Re: finding balance point
There was was way to much group hugging going on in the beginning of this thread and now its right where I like it :YEAH.
By the way, I call
on the in and out of balance point jive as well. The only people that defend pictures that aren't at balance point are those who can't hit it at all 
.
Power wheelies suck too...

Re: finding balance point
Well Look who it is Anthony, man you never asked me how to wheelie and I reach BP on my bike just fine. Like everyone else said it's all about trial/error, let's hope you don't get to the error part, but when you hit BP, like the previous poster said it's all about corrections and throttle control. Hey Louisvillerider, you must be Paul, right?

Naw not trying to defend them, that's what i do. I'm just your average rider speaking from my experiences and no one else's, take it or leave it, never been close to looping the bike nor choppy with the throttle.

I'd have to agree. I've asked a ton of people to show me a thing or to, or just put me down w/a spot and I get shot down faster than a 400lbs chick asking me for a ride on my bike.
Much props to ya Paul, and Zuki05, you'd be a fool to pass up that offer. Not many people lend out a helping hand and an open invite like that....
