Question F3 Wheelie help

Ok so I just bought my f3, I've had a Kawasaki Z750s before this bike, and power wheelies were pretty simple (not that I was any good at them), but with my f3 it seems when I crack the throttle it hesitated, and my chain was shot and had WAY too much slack and was just junk, so I did a 520 conv, and I realized it came with a -1 front sprocket. Anyway now it seems when I try out doing a power wheelie I got a couple good ones, but its inconsistent....and I haven't really messed with clutch wheelies too much yet cause I wanna get the power wheelies down lol. Does the f3 have enough ***** to do it or am I just dumb I just blame it on the fact that its carburated lol. Thanks!!!

Re: F3 Wheelie help

1 - over tightened chain will snap
2 - Pow pow's are more dangerous than clutch ups due to the speed factor. Learn how to use that clutch and cover your rear brake. It takes more ***** to clutch them up, but will get you to balance point the quickest
