...and it felt brilliant, gonna go out more often after a night shift and have a go I think, less chance of geting tugged

wheelies are big and clever,just dont get caught ,or off to jail will you be!

try a quiet rural road with plenty of run off,and nice and long ,with soft verges for the "tits up experience" cusioning!,keep a moby with you if you do "off!" that way you can call your rescuers if the fan gets "mudied!",

and if you stick to these hints and learn your craft , you might even be good one day!

pluss,if you decide the highway is the best bit-o-mac and the schoolyard of bike stunts,and her majestys finest feel your collar,try to explain that you are familiarising yourself with the power delivery of your machine,as not to be caught unawares in a future incident.

if that washes,send your cheque to me!

keep safe ,enjoy !

power wheelie or clutching it up? I forget what you ride...is it the red ninja?

Im a bit of a pussy because im scared of dropping my bike but i'd love to be able to wheelie

Wazzzer

yeah red 600 ninja, it was a clutch up wheelie so not really a proper one...

gurnE

Nothing 'not proper' about clutching it up. A lot of professional stunt riders do the same thing.

Whether you bring the bike up off the throttle or with the clutch is just personal preference.

It's finding and holding that balance point that's the tricky part

I learnt to wheelie on my YZF450 used to get it in to 4th sit back & let it come up! Its the best feeling

Any1 know how to put a video up? Ive got a short vid of me standing on the seat doing a wheelie!!

And your right it is big & it is clever

rapidcossie

have you seen the wheelies the ghost rider can do?

seena few of his vids and they are mental, just mental..

wheelies at over 200 mph!

Mental almost isn't a strong enough word for it lol

not surprising that is wheelies with all that power though

Popping wheelies at any speed could be scary...doing 200mph is also scary...combine the 2 and you get sheer madness

I learnt to wheelie on my old RD350YPVS....also learnt shift gears during a wheelie on the same bike. Owned a tweeked GSXR750j Slingshot now for over 8yrs.....proper wheelie machine Wait till you first get your knee down.....thats a real rewarding feeling when your knee kisses the tarmac for the first time, just try to keep it to just being the knee and not the bike
