I have a 2000 f4 with 23k. I can bring it up in second using the clutch but i feel like im going to blow up the motor. Anyone got any sugestions on how to wheelie with out using the clutch?

change out the sprockets or the wise thing and forget doing wheelies.

your not doing it right if your clutching it and your that close to redline when you get it up. powerwheelies redline alot faster but the f4 is capable to do both in 2nd gear and the key is balancing it immediatly.

I am -1 +2 and I clutch 2nd all day

For 2nd I will give it about 3/4 throttle at about 4-5,000 RPM as the RPM is passing 6,000 I will clutch it. it comes up great.

3rd is a little more difficult same idea but give it full throttle somewhere between 6-7,000 Rpm I will clutch it.

I'm not sure what altitude you are at but I am at 4,500 ft and clutching 3rd is a pain in the a$$ at sea level I can do it all day.

I dropped one tooth in the front with the RK quick accel kit and 2nd gear clutch ups are pretty easy, but I hate doing them because I know its destroying the clutch. Otherwise just get going in 2nd around 7000, pin it then let off and preload the front forks while standing up and it should come up.

I'd rather replace clutch fibers, than chain and sprockets....

Stand up on that thing, dump the clutch and go to town.... Works like a charm
