ive been trying to learn wheelies, and i started by doing power wheelies in first, then moved to clutching in second, so i tried clutching in first and it seemed effortless, and i didnt run out of rpms like a power wheelie, and its much more consistant, but everybody says theres no need. whats your take?

 

I only clutch 5th

 

Atleast 4th if not 5th like Ross said

 

no need. your doing it right clutch it in 5th or 6th the higher the gear the longer the wheelies also clutch it when u do a stopie you get the *** up higher.. good luck see u at the comps.

 

I only use 6th for my wheelies.

 

im not talking about lot riding, im saying on a stock bike, on the streets, everybody tells me not to clutch in first, just power it up, just wondering what you guys did

 

It depends on what powerband your bike has....mine has a red one so it comes up super ez and I can power up all day long.... And run out the rpms for DAYS....I'm talkin like 80 mph in 1st gear....I just red line that byatch....but yours might be blue or yellow so ya you'll prob need to clutch the crap out of that pig!!!

 

^^I'm with beardo. I'm ready for Full Throttle to finish the design on their new red carbon fiber power bands! Gonna be sah-weet!

 

just so you know, im not a dumbass, just wondering if you guys clutched or not, thats all

 

Fail

 

dude, i've heard people say power it up, i was just wondering what you guys do, and dont give me red carbon fiber power band bull ****, im not stupid, im not new to riding, just to stunting

 

Everything you want to know has been discussed 1000 times, bro. Search.

 

Clutch that bitch then....why don't you go out and ride....try both see what works best for you....makes sence to me

 

Sounds like "everybody" is giving you horrible advice. They're pretty much telling you they would rather not be in control of a wheelie. Consistent IS better! Its always a good thing if you're not running out of rpms, that means you are locked into the wheelie and could go for miles IN CONTROL. I dont get what the problem is?

 

thanks, i just needed some solid advice, i cant find too many stunters in nh to ride with, so i never get good advice

 

lol this is just like when i **** a girl on the first night i met her and they always say "just so u know i never do this, i hope u dont think im a ****" hahahhahah nooooooooooo i would never think that.

 

I'm sorry for the sarcasim(sp) but it does seem a bit like a dumbass Q. Sounds to me like your tryin to pow pow so ya go ahead and throttle it up. If your tryin to hit b/p or idle then ya come to a stop or almost stopped and clutch the **** up.... Of course that is stated w/ the assumption that you already have rear brake control since your not a dumb *** or a new rider. If you got no brake control and you go clutch it up most likely I will see you on here looking to buy some replacement parts for your bike....good luck stunna!!!

 

bwhahah... happened ooo soo many times!!

 

This guy should be able to kill some idle b/p whoolies now that someone finaly gave him som solid advise...there is no problem just sounds like this guy is powing whoolies and wanting to know the right way to do it.... Just tryin to help....bawwaahnhhh good luck!!

 

if you read what i was saying, im not in a lot, so im not doing idle wheelies, and i'm not clutching bp wheelies either, but im doing a lot better than i was powering em up. so i guess i answered my own question
