no bike is a stunt bike other than the yamaha trickster....

you said i wouldnt try to wheelie that bike, ive seen people try to wheelie and crash that bike.....

ive seen an f4i, gsxr600,750 & 1000, kawi 6rr, r6 r1, 900rr, 929, 954, 1000rr, 600rr crash. maybe i should tell everyone that asks how to wheelie that bike to not try it.

EVERY BIKE HAS GONE DOWN IN A WHEELIE..................dumb a.ss

maybe if you learned how to explain yourself better, you wouldnt be misunderstood....ever think of that?

 

No it is easier to loop a twin with the clutch than by bouncing it. since you have a katana i guess you wouldn't know that. i am also guessing you can't read cause i said i can bring it up to "balance point" faster by bouncing it in second. Therefore its not a power wheelie. also if you have ever ridden a twin, or a wheelie at the balance point you might know what your talking about. twins also have enough engine break, unless your going super slow to be able to drag the tail without ever touching the rear brake and do it very smoothly. learn your ****.

 

Why would it be easier to loop a twin with clutch? Like anything, you'd drop the clutch at higher and higher rpm's until you find a rpm level that brings it right up to bp, just as you would with an inline four. If you power it up it's much more unpredictable, it will start to comes up slowly and then shoot up, making it a lot harder to judge where to let off the throttle, making it much more likely that someone new to wheelies will loop.
And I rode a sv650, so much more wheelyable than the kat. However clutching it was how I brought it up and the way that my friend who owned the 650 always brought it up.

 

power wheelies arnt unpredictable if you know how to use your right wrist,all summer long i done power wheelies and i have great throttle control because of it, half of my highway wheelies are just bounced simply because i dont have to clutch my bike to bring up a balanced wheelie,not everyone clutches their bike up in every single wheelie,im glad i have the throttle control to be able to bring it back from beyond the balance point with just engine braking,im still getting clutching on lock and rear brake control so im not a pro at this **** but i know how to bring up a wheelie,get off that kanotuna and you'll see you dont have to clutch up all your wheelies

 

its all about the pow pow pow pow powa wheelies....bitches

 

unlike a four a twin has so much torque down low that it will come up to balance point immediatly. it does not start slow and then come up fast unless your trying to power it up at 100 then its a different story.

 

Clutch :YEAH Clutch :YEAH Clutch :YEAH Play around with it and make sure to take it at your own pace :YEAH Once you get it you'll be able to really dial in balance point wheelies in whatever gear you want :YEAH That's the fun part about clutching, it's the same wheelie in every gear :YEAH Rip it up!

GSXR420,i love your avatar..my bike is a beast too..a ZX7R haha

 

Power wheelies are retarded on any bike. The only time I bounce my **** is when I'm clutching at the same time.

 

You just don't learn do you. why isn't there a FHL doesn't what the fu(k hes talking about smiley?

 

Yeah ridin the tl is like trying to control a whale. heavy bastards

 

Actually, this is one thing that I agree with FHL on.
Is that the tl1000 in your avatar? Nice bike but it looks tough to put a 12 bar on that.

 

nah, not too hard. just ditched the stock cans for some carbon D&D's i shortened about 8 inches and cut the tail about four inches or so. The bar itself took a little work as i didn't cut the tail mounting tabs off so i had to work the bar around it. solid as a rock though. Cutting the tail was the biggest pain. as you have to take the bar off before the tail. major pain in the ***.

 

so how the wheelies coming?

 

Was the pic in your profile taken before you shortened the tail and put on the bar or after? Sounds like they didn't make the tl to 12. How easy is that to bring up? It looks like it has a lot of weight up front

 

yes that pic was when i first got my bike a couple months ago. don't have any new ones. hopefully ill have some new ones after this weekend. in the lot doing first gear a small bounce and quarter maybe half throttle at about10 mph brings it to 12 in about 15 feet. same with second. third and fourth require cluthing though. yeah its front heavy something fierce though. in the pic in my avatar i am about an inch past balance. the damn thing doesn't balance till you get it to 11:30. makes learning twelves and coasters that much easier though.

 

rc 51's are geared so damn tall in the stock ratio's.....you should be able to wheelie first gear for miles, i was able to on mine no problem, 2nd and 3rd came up too.
