best wheelie sprocket combination
 

what is the best wheelie combination for sprockets... one down in front and 3 up in back? i have an 05 kawasaki zx-6r and was wondering what the best combo is without losing too much top end, and i would also like to know the best air filter k&n vs. bmc or any others

Re: best wheelie sprocket combination
 

go -2 and +2 inthe back so u dont have to get a new chain

Re: best wheelie sprocket combination

-1front +2rear. Note: changing your gearing with throw your speedo off. On -1+2 mine showed 10mph faster than I was going

-1 +10, you'll still go 100mph. Stock filter, anything else sucks.

beltdrive for life..

Re: best wheelie sprocket combination
 

with the zx-6r i can only find front sprockets that go down one... that is the lowest, but in the back i have found them up 30 more than stock

Re: best wheelie sprocket combination
 

once again.. why do you think you need sprockets... it's not going to help power wheelies

Re: best wheelie sprocket combination
 

how is it not gunna help power wheelies?

Re: best wheelie sprocket combination
 

Because there is no help nor hope for power wheelies.

+1 i bounce up 2nd gear no clutch and bounce and clutch 3rd and 4th gear on my 636 at 6000 feet where we lose 20-25% power on bikes...

you dont need sprockets you need skill

instead of sprockets try using the clutch

i cant quite clutch it up yet, a guy i know revs it up to 11 grand in second goin about 35 mph and then just drops it ... thats how he clutches it... is that how im supposed to do it, im just now gettin into "stunting" i guess you could say, only minor wheelies and stoppies but i cant quite clutch it up yet, a little advice wouldbe nice, i know there is a whole sticky thread thing but that one is a little confusing

just ride your bike and have fun with it. you will eventually start wheelying well or crash trying, some ppl got it and some ppl dont. we can tell you everything u want to know but its not going to transfer over from your brain to your body anyway. you have to learn it for yourself. just know that everything that is being done in the stunt world can be done on a stock bike(minus certain hb tricks), u dont need gearing. you need a natural ability to balance yourself and a 100+hp machine on one wheel. if u dont have natural ability then u need a bank account and the will to get up and try again after you flip that shit down the road a few times. good luck, be safe, wear a helmet, bring a camera, show us the footage.

Re: best wheelie sprocket combination
 

learn the cluch and bp with stock sprockets, and then when you start diong real slow stuff then think about going up some teeth.

Re: best wheelie sprocket combination
 

clutching is def. the best way to go you have more control on when the bike comes up and sprockets only really help for getting higher gears to come up for example 3rd gear on my f4i won't clutch up but 2nd will so i went -1 front +4 rear now i have 3rd and 4th clutch up for highway wheelies and my top end is about 145 so i didn't loose too much but deff. go with clutch up you will same effort and time learning

stock f4i will come up in 4th with a clutch and a bounce

Big Sprockets Are Cool But Stuntin With A Stock Sprocket Is Cooler

false...
when u're workin on no hander shit, with stock sprockets, and u stall and nail your balls.. it gets old real fast

Re: best wheelie sprocket combination
 

i went one down in front and 3 up in rear, ive been workin on clutchin them up with just the one down in front and next week the up 3 in rear should be here so ill hopefully be doin better wheelies, i have been practicing in 1st gear clutching them up... any more advice?

Re: best wheelie sprocket combination
 

gearing isn't going to make it any easier, i told you that, so get that outta your head, my advice is do standups, you're not going to progress doing sit downs.. clutch it, be smooth on the gas, and watch the rear brake, even apply a little pressure to it, cuz if u're not trained with brake, and a panic situation comes, u won't hit it.. so if u keep a little pressure on it, and overpower it with gas, and realize that as soon as u let off it comes down cuz u're already on brake, u'll be ok

Re: best wheelie sprocket combination
 

the 636 has great gearing stock IMO. If you don't know how to use the rear brake, you'll just be winding out faster and your wheelies will be shorter.

Re: best wheelie sprocket combination
 

Gearing it is just going to make 2nd like 1st used to be. You'll just be pulling them in 2nd instead of 1st........who's on 1st?

Re: best wheelie sprocket combination
 

dude are you serious ?

Re: best wheelie sprocket combination
 

yeah clutch it up....and throw some spreaders...

Re: best wheelie sprocket combination
 

ive got an 05 r1 ... gettin it up isnt the problem but ive been learning slow sh*t and right now i can get it up goin about 5 mph but from looks of it a bigger sprocket would make thing a whole lot easier ... any input would help

Re: best wheelie sprocket combination
 

u lift it up at 5mph.. then at what speed are you at bp, and how far can u carry it

Re: best wheelie sprocket combination
 

Why do people stunt R1's?? I don't get it

if u're at 5mph, why would u slow it down? u're probably goin around 20.. turn your idle up

[QUOTE=Mr. Farley]Why do people stunt R1's?? I don't get it[/QUOTE]
its not my first choice but its what i have to work with ... the shitty part is i sold my f4i for the r1 before i started stuntin

[QUOTE=crtchrktrcr]if u're at 5mph, why would u slow it down? u're probably goin around 20.. turn your idle up[/QUOTE]
your right once its up its around 20 or so ... ive been tryin with the idle around 3000 and it seems a little smoother ... probably just need practice with it but should i try throwin a bigger sprocket on or would it be better to learn with out

Re: best wheelie sprocket combination
 

learn with out it.. all u gotta do is have it back just a little farther.. u'll feel it, but sell that r1 asap
