yeah, all my wheelies are power wheelies in first.... rev up to 9000rpm, let off the gas completely, then wack it wide open throttle and up she comes....

Nice videos guys, looks like everybody had a blast. Its very painful for me to see the videos because I have no bike yet, oh the humanity:eek Hopefully in the next few weeks I'll buy one

You should try bringing it to around 6000 RPM and then off and WOT. Comes up real quick for me and gives you more time to find or reach the balance point. Then you can carry it for as long as you want.

yeah, it comes up on me fast at 9k, so i'll try some lower rpms to see if I can hold it longer.... or I could just learn how to shift into 2nd and ride it out hehehehe first gear is too short to hold it for very long.... but i'm just doing baby steps right now....

 

[Ryan R]

Baby steps is good, that's how I am progressing too. If you get impatient things can turn for the worse.
