ive got a 00 600 gsxr i have no trouble getting it up in first for fast bursts, second is a bit of a pain. what im wondering is a bigger rear sprocket the answer, when i try to do wheelies at slower speeds i cant keep the bike up in first at all seems to sputter when i do, and in second all i can do is go 50 + to keep it up. im able to control them in first standing on rear pegs alone but no moore then a few hundred yards but at like 35 + in first i want to try slow wheelies any ideas? ive got a GPR which helps balance quite a bit and my dam powers cage isnt helping as its a heavy piece as well but does the job the bike is stage 1 jetted, k & n, m4 full system, just had carbs cleaned and re jetted to exhaust, if gearing is my best bet. what size ? i do drive the bike to and from base as a daily driver so i cant be using something that will have me flipping my ****, i do (wanna go fast as well) but im willing to lose a lil off the top as 160 isnt really necessary

 

Just make sure the GPR is tight so it helps you balance


But for real. Just practice. If your carbs, clutch and the rest of the bike is setup right it all comes down to seat time. Have you read the wheelies sticky?

 

i get the bike up easy in first like i said but when i try to go slow the bike sputters its a pain trying to stay up while holding the clutch in ever so little along with burping the throttle to keep it from wanting to sputter, when i said the GPR was helping me balance i mean its preventing me from swaying when the wheels tilted with out the slap

 

go to HAIBIKE.COM and order a +10 sprocket and an EASY BUTTON.......that will fix all your problems................oh yea and practice, practice, practice and when you finally think you got it.......go practice again..........................................the n again if you cant get it up in 2nd then you obivously not giving it enough gas remember those old SRADS weigh as much as tanks so give it some more gas.....and with the sputtering it might just be doing that cause your still riding stock gearing or maybe your on the brake to hard but there's no way it should be doin that at 35mph how fast are you going when it starts to sputter?

 

will + 10 in the rear be ok for use on highway? i tend to travel from jax to Tampa twice a month

 

yea it would mess with you to bad knock 30-40mph off top end!!!!

 

was hoping for maybe 20 off the top end ... maybe a +5?

 

+5 -1 and go make whoolies!!!!
