Re: Need Advice With Wheelies Vids?

well for just regular wheelies you are starting out right just remember the higher you get the bike up the less you will have to accelerate to keep it up ,if you get scared just get off the throttle and hit the rear brake but your not high enough yet to have to worry about the rear brake but get use to covering it now so when you need it it will be there

Re: Need Advice With Wheelies Vids?

yep but at least your hitting it......

when you start to get them rolling a little longer and smooth then you can play with the brake more and get a better feel for it , just think about it a thousand more wheelies and you will have it.....lol

Re: Need Advice With Wheelies Vids?

so youve only done about 20 ? try and find a spot where you can do 100 or 200 in a couple hours...hit that spot a few times...then you'll notice real improvement

Re: Need Advice With Wheelies Vids?

Hey I get mixed opitions on this question........1st gear or 2nd gear? which one is better to learn on......one say first because you don't have to chase and in second it comes up a lil slower

same bike..

<<<<<<<<<

1st gear, i guess just keep practising untill 1st gear sit downs are a good 10 secs+ by then ud have basic throttle and clutch control

one way to learn rear break is to well. after u can wheele decent in 1st constatnly.

slightly drag the rear brake. and try wheeliin then. get use to telling your foot to " tap the brake" and in time ull be able to go higher and higher untill u know u need to apply some brake.


be gentle bringin these bikes down. they tend to snap in half for BS reasons
