So you wanna do a wheelie? There are basically two methods of getting the front end up.
Using The Clutch
First ensure that you are in first gear, and going quite slowly (the actual figures will vary from bike to bike), say around 3500rpm. Sit as far back in the seat as you can, and sit as upright as possible (this is to move as much weight as possible backwards). Roll the throttle on to maximum, as the tacho moves through 4000-4500 rpm, pull the clutch in. As engine rise rapidly, let the clutch back out quickly at around 4000rpm later.
Did the front wheel lift?
If not, you'll have to increase the RPM differential. Ideally, you should be feeding the clutch back in somewhere around peak torque or slightly higher. The larger/more powerful the bike, the less critical it is. Pulling the clutch in at lower rpm is also another option. It's all a matter of experimentation. But beware, don't wind it up to the rev limitter at a stand still and just pop the clutch on the first attempt. It is better to fail 20 times, than flip over on the first attempt!
Are you now in hospital?
If so, after you heal you could give it another go.
Is the bike a wreck?
Well, either way, at least you've learnt something. Only mechanically insensitive idiots do wheelies!
Using The Throttle
This technique requires a little more from the bike and it is actually possible that you cannot lift the front end using the throttle alone. Firstly, what your bike really needs is throttle response, because you'll be relying on the bike to load and unload the suspension quickly to help hoist the bike up. Of course, if you own a 916 or a ZZR-11 or something of that like, you can stop reading now. Just back up and do it in first gear!
The idea is to use your suspension to help loft the front wheel. You do this by accelerating hard, shutting the throttle quickly, thus loading up the front, and as the forks reach their maximum compression, pull the throttle again. Pulling back on the handle, lurching back and standing up are all optional. They may be necessary for your bike.
Now of course it is easy to say as the forks reach their maximum compression, but when you're trying to concentrate on everything else, it's all a bit much. So try remembering this. What you are dealing with here is physics. If you open the throttle at a certain rpm, close it at a certain rpm, delay a certain amount of time and then open the throttle again, what happens will be pretty much the same from one occasion to the next. What you're really trying to do is learn what these variables are, with practice you'll develop a feel for when you've got it right.
Have fun and ride safe always!-XL

lmao^^
with the bike you have its going to be hard as hell you might just want to get into 1st stand on the tail and pull as hard as possible...also when you hit the point to where you feel your gonna flip backwards thats the balance point keep it there and you can go forever.

i was rideing over the mountain pass today... really pushing it as fast as i could and boy does it get kinda scary, aproaching corners too fast aint a good idea.. really hate when the back wheel starts to slide out or when both wheels start to slide towards the corner.. its hardcore, but its fun as hell. ima make a video.. i live up the top of the hill. ima make a video of oneside to the other.. think its a good 20 miles maybe.

this is EXACTLY why i don't like the mindset of crotch rocket riders or what they do to the name of bike riders. WTF is the point of the wheelie? SHow off? Woo hoo your special? doing wheelies puts you and every one aroudn you at risk when you do it. And honestly...if you haven't figured out how to do it yet on your own just by knowing your bike... you aren't experienced enough of a rider to even THINK about doing something like that.

On your bike, it will be hard to do a wheelie. Wait untill you have the upgrade, and then you might be able to do it in 1st. Probably not in anyother gear though, due to the low power.

upgrade is illegal so it takes time to order parts, they hope to have parts next week. i think upgrade consists, of changing carb from 28mm to 34mm, putting a power valve in that opens at certain rpm and closes. not sure what else, but those are some of the main things.
yeh xtra large i will show em.
my brother got a helmet, i dunno if i should practice with passanger or just wait for upgrade.
