As far as the flamingo (I think that's what your talking about), that just takes doing it and getting a feel for it. When you first do it, it may feel like the bike get's a little shaky, but you'll get over it.
As far as the tank goes, I learned by jumping from the pegs to the tank first, then went back and learned to clutch it up from the tank. However, I don't recommend this because if your not careful, a slip off the tank when jumping up there is not that hard to do (just ask Darius). I don't run grip tape on my bike, but most of the people do cause they say that it helps. Just practice slow, and don't get ahead of yourself.

For tank wheelies smash in the gas tank you dont need grip tape **** looks retarded.. Clutch the bitch up and ride out.. Fun as hell when you get them balanced out and ride as far as you want..
