Learning stand up wheelie

[virk0905]

coolll

[jessedlangel]

i can power em up at 50 and ride it to 100, but i'm sitting down... kinda nervous about the whole standing up thing but i think it might be easier once i try it...

[jessedlangel]

what are you like 6' 6" !? haha

[sl600rt]

oh look a squid on a gixxer. can't you idiots stay off public streets when you are learning to be organ donars? save the resonsible motorcycle riders from your negative influence.

[futureusmc4sure]

@sl600rt they are in the middle of fucking no where lol, I didnt see one other car in the whole video, plus he is wearing protective gear. live and let live. stop being such a bitch

[sl600rt]

@futureusmc4sure i bet i could dust off my old suzuki 250 and ride circles around him low speed technical skill courses like those used in police competitions.

[futureusmc4sure]

@sl600rt cool story bro

[NINJABOI1234]

You clutch or power up?

[gooooooodies]

nice man! are you clutching it or doing power??

[wursthunter]

dress for the slide not for the ride

[Brickydude2]

oh i do gots something on u playa, my hairy ballsack!!

[rahuljainification]

er... having both feet on rear pegs can get you killed, right foot should always cover the rear brake

... do you rev up the bike entire time?

@EASYCOMPANY2008

whats life without a whaeelie

[stratosgreek]

nice job brother! if thats your first time, great job!

be safe! good luck!

[334683171014]

hell yeah, i just started learning the staggered style the other day and so far am coming right along, it feels awkward at first but feels a whole lot better than the original front pegs stand ups. It definately takes balls but its not that bad. I just see most of the guys on youtube that ride wheelies forever do it like this. Good luck man!

[LeeRRiDLer]

Can someone breakdown "clutching" for me? 

[bosticboi89]

i have a r1 and i usually clutch 2nd or 3rd clutching is so much easy once you get the hang of it bc it brings you right to your balance point. powering is more difficult hitting the balance point and alot more dangerous...

[Misterbietje]

@bosticboi89

i agree :-)

[MitEclipse91]

ya i guess im a squid but someone please answer how do you control the wheelie once its in the air i drive a 2000 zx6r and want to know how to do a long ass wheelie and i can only ride a wheelie through the gear then back down, and im 19 so its not like im super old lol no offense to anyone, but yea how you control the wheelie while in the air

[greg9210]

go higher than you think, and youll feel the balance point...i learned by thinking "ok im going to try to flip the bike" than your wits allow you to go a lil higher and find that balance point!

[Alecks1990]

learning ?

thats damn good man !

[nemensis100]

both but its better with clutch i got an 04 1000 that shit got power im on the same boat with you lol

[pagitos112]

fucking music choice!!

fucking lil wayne he is just getting fucked about now in the jail hahah!

[fedaliskoo]

nice job man.. you make it look easy man.. it takes balls

[wak3bo4rder]

staggard wheelie squid not a standup

[Urbanlegenz1]

Just FYI about the steering, bring the bike up a little higher, it does not look like you are hitting the balance point all the way so your speed is increasing. then you just lean one way or the other... It took me a while to figure out how to steer them... Check out some of my vids, comment and subscribe...

[jaab3z]

lookin real good bro! one quick question: did you take the pressure down in the rear tire when you were practicing?

[wursthunter]

the music suxxx but theat video is pretty ok! keep trying....

[shootphotosnotarabs]

must learn the stand up when your sitting down only things to look at are your feul tank and the sky.

[patrickroks]

well if this is learning you are a good student:P

only a bad choice of music though but who cares?

it's a nice wheelie.

[Ironbirdx]

looks very good ;)

[1911pistolyickyack]

pretty bike man

[bmewillow1985]

I am trying to learn stand ups also...I'm on a V-twin bike though I dunno if that changes the balance point more or whatnot.. sit down wheelies I am sooo comfortable doing..But reading the comments maybe I'll try back pegs and try to get past the awkwardness. nice bike and video man.

[honduchi]

its straight. u should try slippin te clutch

[tbromeland]

whats the name of that song?

[hamster1045]

Its lil wayne- You aint got nothin on me

[damon123jones]

@tbromeland anoying shit disco music i think

[JSPEC32]

Sick song and good job bro! What is the name of this track man?

[yakitoriPB]

nice wheelies....shitty choice of music.

[will0430]

When you wheelie do you use the clutch or just power wheelie. I have an 07 Gsx-r 750 and I'm a little scared to use the clutch.

[hamster1045]

In this video I was clutching second gear, I just pull in the clutch with my index finger and as i get ready to let out the clutch i smack the gas to WOT and by that point the clutch is already out and it comes up, then obviously i dont hold it at WOT lol.

[damon123jones]

@hamster1045

awesome wheelies i can get mine to pop in 2nd 

[CorneliusZelius]

@hamster1045 do you just let your finger off the clutch and pop it? or release it slowly??

[jr14103]

@will0430 Lots of people worry about the clutch being uncontrolable.... but trust me bro it is alot safer than using power up. if you power it up you are then up on a wheelie with high rpm.... it makes it harder to control. Clutch is the way to go bro.

[camelface1]

@jr14103 I used to clutch up, but last summer I found out it comes up just the same with throttle and a bounce on the forks. Takes some practice but it comes up smoother, lower rpms, and it's a lot nicer to my bike. I'll have a vid as soon as winter's over.

[jr14103]

@camelface1 Ya i guess that more easy on a smaller bike. i wheelie an r1. Keep riding bro i'll be lookin for your next vid.

[ajohnson]

Are all or most stand up wheelies done while standing on the rear passanger pegs? I've got sit down wheelies down but going to start attemping these.

[hamster1045]

it feels aqward at first, but then you get used to it

[Billy18bm]

its actually way easier on the back pegs IMO..

[clax302]

@hamster1045 also might want to add that you keep your right foot on the peg over the rear brake. The left foot is on the rear pegs.

[gonzo3816]

It makes it easier to work your balance point but a lot easier to go over. Just do it they way it feels right for you and good luck

[stuntboys88]

Is your sproket and chain stock?

[hamster1045]

in this vid yes, going up 2 in the rear and down 1 in the front this winter

[Armurp01]

man how tall are you? I'm 6'4" and I know I look funny on my bike when I'm standing it up.

[sportbikemadness]

Worry more about keeping the front tire up THEN steering. What good is steering a 5 secong wheelie. Just a little higher and you're at balance point. Seat time makes perfection! Keep up the practing and FTP!

[svany217]

hey cutie. nice bike- wanna hang out?

[juicer404]

nice

[IndyTroop]

Where is a State Trooper when you need one! Not bad for a Suzuki and tell Brandon he owes me a tank of gas.

[hamster1045]

Haha why does brandon owe you a tank of gas

[IndyTroop]

J/K...He got stopped by a friend of mine the other day and walked away with a warning. That is why he owes me...HAHA!

[hamster1045]

oh lol, yeah he told me about that, thats funny. you should come down sunday and ride or somthing, its been a while
