You might check yer suspension settings too, if they are too soft, that might hurt yer wheelie endevors. And tighten that chain up too. Mine likes to wheelie in 2nd coming out of turns (-1, +2, 3/8ths inch spacer under rear shock, max hard rear settings, racetec gold front inards, 520 chain conv). She's a blast.

well i will be damned .... aparently in the 750 miles i have put on this bike i have never actually hit full throttle .... gotta shorten that throw seriously ... did notice today when i actually did that the front tire came about 6 inches off the ground effortlessly (i didnt want to go any higher ... really didnt plan on it coming up)

2nd gear will come up. If you get the RPM's up to about 7k, while standing, preload the suspension and snap the throttle. It will come up, but I don't recomend this for inexperienced riders, since you are doing at least 70 in a stand-up mode. Careful for wobble while up in the air and head-shake when you land.

wonder if there is sumthing with my bike then ... course i am not shifting any weight back or anything but i am also not leaning overthe tank but ...
it is kind of a parking lot thing something to keep me entertained while my woman is running on the track cause i hate her being up there alone but i also cant stand to sit there for over an hour doing nothing
you will never cath me on 1 wheel on a road .... EVER ... too many variables, i do my playing in safe areas
