How High Should The Idle Be?

whats up everyone, I am currently working on my slow wheelies and I was wondering what I should set my idle at? Right now I am at about 4 thousand but it doesnt seem like it wants to hold itself up? Am I doing something wrong or should the idle be higher or what? Someone please help.

4 should be more than enough. Try not too be so hard on the brake. You kinda want to be on and off the brake, you know what I mean? You don't want constant brake pressure when the idle is all thats keeping you up, you just want to tap the brake to keep yourself from going over.
