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.
