First off man if you can bring it up but not go forward then you are obviosly not high enough. Balancing point means that you are up high enough that you don't need to gas it anymore and keep it steady on throttle and it should stay up indefinatley......

Next, what kind of 150cc bike.......First you are in a diff. country and other countries have diff. bikes. Be specific on your bike buddy. It could be a 150 street bike or dirt bike or trials bike or........Let the gang know what you are talking about

On my (unfaired, old model) NSR125F, I could bounce it up at abut 7-8k without clutching. On the sportier models you may well need a bounce and a clutch at the same time to get it up decently.

However this is a pretty bad bike to learn on, because there's not much left over once it's up. Probably best to stick to stoppies etc .

Well, seeing as its a two-stroke, you need to make sure you're in the powerband. Yeah, you're at nine grand when you dump the clutch, but if you were only moving 2mph when you did it, you're still not going to have any torque. Try riding up to the bottom of the powerband, hit your clutch and wrap that ****er out, let the clutch out and see what happens. Or like someone said, try bouncing it, just be in the power and bounce the **** out of that thing. Ummm......don't really know what to say about a two-stroke streetbike. It's just not my bag baby, yeah!
