with enuf a$$ you dont need a clutch in 1st 2nd or top of 3rd......wheelies from 0 to 105 are all power by me, I do weigh 295 and am 6'6, but I need a big bike to move my a$$ around

Make sure you slide your but as far back as you can...
more weight on the back means you can bring it up sooner.... and hold it up longer before it tachs out.

Slide back, accelerate quickly to make the front end light, then just give it abit more throttle from where you're at... Much easier that way, as you can feel the bike come up more smoothly... Just keep it steady as the wheel comes up- to start you only have to bring it up a few inches... and you can actually bring it back down by moving your weight forward without releasing throttle, which means - smoother landing, no busted fork seals.
Little by little, you can bring it up higher and higher... without slamming your bike down.

Throttle control baby...

Viola.

yeah but the only problem wit that is that it only comes up for a few inches n for a few feet. it is somewhat of a good startin point but it isnt gonna give u the "O ****e!" feelin (thats where ur u can **** a diamond cause ur o-ring is so damn tight). Bottom line is practice in second gear, clutch it up or whatever u have to do to get it up n work on the back brake...dont bother in first cause its too touchy to learn in this gear as i learned the hard way bout a month ago (my back broke the bikes fall...go figure?).

yeah IMO..learn in 2nd gear. 1st gear is too touchy and scary for learners..Flipped my blade while doin 1st gear wheelie when I can easily lift her up in 2nd...duh!!

Yup..2nd gear with half-clutching it in..

For me there's two methods of clutching-in technique..

1) Think of stop and go moving off....half clutch and then fully let go.
2) While on the move..give a quick slip of the clutch and a blip of the throttle simultaneously.

For me..2nd option is easier. But you have to find your own suitable rpm range before sliping the clutch...

Disclaimer: Do this at your own risk!!! Practice makes perfect...Do small, big ones will come later.. Good Luck!!

LOL!!!

clutch it up in second. it may take a while to get the rpms down but once u do u will c how smooth it is. n keep ur *** in the seat for a while

around 45 to 60 mph in 2nd just bump the clutch and hammer the throdle and it will come up nice and smooth. i live at about 400 ft above sea level, the higher the alt. the harder to do wheelies!
