Re: cant wheelie my tl1000r

man that is a REALLY easy bike, try using the clutch, 2nd gear but be careful tho man, that bike has a LOT of torque, but like i said 2nd gear around 25-35 clutch it up 2 round 9 or 10g's and hold on buddy...sorry if that dont help ya...the TL should wheelie itself

I guess it depends on the pipes you have, but every TL i have heard has just been screamingly loud......I love those bikes...but yea what everyone else has said, That bike should just come up with a handful of throttle...The one i rode was like a chore to keep the front wheel down w/o trying to do so

Body position? are you sitting on the back of the seat? That could be why the tire is spinning if all your weight is on the front.

I would imagine those bikes would do wheelies without trying just using full throttle..
