What I tell most people who ask me "how to do wheelies" is if you can't figure it out on your own its probably best that you don't try them. Not trying to sound like an *** or anything but if you aren't comfortable enough on the bike to naturally figure it out, then don't force it.
Your probably pulling up to hard on the handlebars. Just go in 2nd and rev it fairly high, then let off-then "bounce" or preload the front suspension and it will pop right up. With enough practice it actually becomes rather easy. You might want to regear it to get more low end power, then 3rd gear power wheelies are possible. Or else you could just forget power wheelies and clutch them up, but then you run the risk of burning out your clutch rather quickly.
oh the clutch wheelie im not that experience yet just started wheeling i just wana start small and easy and my brother does clutch whelies on his r1 his says clutch is easier then power
Keep the same amount of tension on both arms. Otherwise your going to set the front wheel down crooked and go into a bad tank slapper, and at that moment if you panic grab a handfull of brakes and eat asphalt real fast. It shouldnt be shaking when coming up unless you have uneven tension on the bars. Personally I would tell you to quit trying because IMO your doing this for the wrong reasons, however you probably wouldnt listen so all I can tell you is theres a good possibility you will loop your bike. Cover that rear brake and take it slowly.
i do one every once in a while. the GOOD reason i have is that its fun....the same reason i have a bike in the first place. i just dont like seing people do it in town and/or on busy streets. empty parking lot in town is a different story. lol but i dont go lookin for em.
yeah it is fun but you gotta watch out i got pulled over one day for bringing it up but i got out of it by sayin i was playing with the throttel and it came up but he said some old bull like improper use of a motor vehicle and and careless something
