@homewreckerrob Oh ok! Nice "monster".... and awesome wheelies :) you might want to keep practicing! Thanks for being an ass btw... I was just asking a question
They guys below are all correct. You should start slow with power wheelies then move to clutching it up. I started with power wheelies then after a while I thought they were boring so I moved to clutch wheelies. I got them down fairly well when I first had my bike (2003 636) then I did some upgrades with a new back tire and a bigger rear sprocket. That changed everything I used to have my bike 12ed after 8 or 9 thousand rpm after the sprocket it was 6500 to 7000.
@codybeast3434, I hear you should start with power wheelies, but my front end doesn't pull up till about 80km or 50mph for you southerners. A little intimidating when you first mistake will not only wreck your bike but as a bonus, put you in the hospital. But I get it.... it feels a lot more predictable. I would love to keep it in the air, but I just dont want to hurt my baby. Any body want to lend me their bike for a day??
first on 6k in first gear to get that "feeling" where bike's got most power, with cover of rear breake, than 2nd gear but with 2/3 of throttle, and so on. in first its like 1/3 of throttle on 600. the easyest way to get bike on rear wheel is to practice it slow in 1st and 2nd gear little by little and yeah as I said, rear breake is key to hold balance, if u go 2 much back, u kick rear breake, your bike is falling down on front wheel 2 fast u need to start accelerating to avoid damaging the forks
From that point you can then go on to work on other areas such as steering the bike via body movement or via the handlebars. There's a lot in a wheelie. Most important things though are body protection and not getting caught! LoL
I am by no means an expert but I have spent a lot of time and practice getting from where you are at present to where I am now. I can ride a wheel on the balance point but still can't truly balance out all the steering etc. You're clearly doing well though.
Also, slow down the process and break it into sections. Start with getting the throttle (revs) just right. Then move onto concentrating on the clutch then once you can get it up continue running the bike on until you run out of revs and it lowers (power wheelies should show this). Once happy start aiming for the balance point. It's nerve racking being here at first but with time it'll get easier.
You're making good attempts... However I believe you would be better getting it up of the power first to get the feeling and get rid of the hesitation you seem to have. You need to improve the throttle control too. Some more revs and quicker out with the clutch. It will all come to you eventually but the bike will lift itself, don't try to pull it up. Also make sure your body remains rigid and you grip the tank with the legs. You shouldn't be relying on holding onto the handle bars to stay on..
Why use the clutch? Use the damper.. Full throttle until 8000 rpm, and the quicly off and on the throttle again. Be careful..

After reading your description, why are you calling your riding partner a "noob" when you've barely got the skill down yourself?
