Here is a gerneral rule............


i believe the best way is to go

power 1st gears
clutch 1st gears
shfit from 1st to 2nd
1st gear standups
2nd gear stand ups
shift 2nd to 3rd
slow rolls
12's

ok on your f4i (considering it has stock gearing) it is really easy to pop up in first.. i get going like 15-20 and just rev to about 7-9 and drop it out ... it should come up quick but not that bad.. it is really easy to get used to.... Weird.. the order that bikerboy listed seems sketchy... i learned 1st power up, 1st clutch up then 2nd clutch up and then stand ups... wasnt that difficult... you'll get it just go out and practice

he is a little touchy!! anyways i power first gear around 5-9 rpm and i usually clutch it around 4 pull the clutch in and give it a little throttle i try not to give it to much because it is first gear and it is a little touchy. if you can get second gear up no problem first is the same just dont use as much throttle. cover your rear brake. good luck

Re: first gear wheelies

From a stand still just rap it out and dump the clutch

If you do learn to pop it up a few inches hit your front brake immediatly people will think you rode it so long your wheel stopped spinnin

Re: first gear wheelies

u could try to "bounce it" standing up in second, even with stock gearing it should work:

get going a good soeed like 30or so u'll feel it out pull in the clutch and rev it bounce ur whole body mostly feet so the suspension is comin up at the same time as u let the clutch out

this is relatively safe cuz second isn't touchy and it kinda easy to balance
i remember doing this when i was first learning and i was kinda hard to time the bounce at first...........but it'll get u used to one wheel
