Clutching up in Second???

Im no stunter but I like a good wheelie here and there.


Im working with my 03 1k and I can bounce up a second gear, but I would like to learn how to clutch them up.

Any suggestions?

Du thanks Mike.

But how high should I take the RPMs up before dumping the clutch, should I dump the clutch or let out easy?

how many fingers to use on the clutch, all or just a few?

should i bounce?

should I make the clutch do all the work.

just start out at low RPM's and work your way higher till she comes up with ease. Don't let it out to slow, I kinda let it snap out, its wierd to explain.
As far as how many fingers, thats just what your comfy with. I only use one finger.
No need to bounce let the bike do the work.

Also you don't need to pull the clutch in all the way, just enouph till it disengages, bring up RPM's, then let it out quick but smooth.

Good luck....

Its hard to give perfect advice for standups because its really all about timing and being comfortable on your bike.

How fast are you trying to pull them up?On your bike you should NO problem grabbing a little extra throttle and coming right up.
Ofcourse, get used to the timing of bouncing a little and then roll on as you come back up from the bounce.
If you want to use the clutch (slow wheelies) again find where your bike comes up best. start by grabbing 4-5k and then let the clutch fly. If that doesnt do it, go higher next time.
Best advice I can give you is RIDE WITH PEOPLE WHO CAN ALREADY DO IT!!! Learn from them as you go

Good luck bro!
