you have to be at balance point, assuming you are, lean on the peg in the direction you want to turn. lean your body that way too. don't push on the ouside (opposite of direction of turn) peg to shift your body.

try and counter steer and lean the way you want to go. just remember like if you want yo go right lean right but you will notice you pushing off with your left so apply more pressure to the right peg. hhhhmmmm did that just come out right?

i'm standin straight up on my pegs and my upper body pretty much touchin the sheild,and try to bring it up at the slowest speed possible.I throw em up in second with no clutch and if i feel i need more gear just click third.Oh ya in ridin a gsxr 600 srad with stock gearing (its my new whip) cause my 750 is apart gettin a new shiny paint job!

Lean back, straighten your arms, hang off the bike. What kind of wheelies are we talknig about here anyway? Slow 1st gear or out on the road with some speed?

your body shouldn't be anywhere near that windshield or tank. lock your legs and your elbows and hang off the back.
