does anyone else have a problem shifting into second in a wheelie???? it'll go in then fall out and down come the whezel. i have been un able to find a shift kit for my 05' 600rr. help please!

 

my friends havent had that problem...

Just clutch in 2nd lol... solves all those problems, and future tranny problems...

 

I would just twist and clutch in 2nd.It is hard on the gear box when you change gears in a wheelie.

 

i did not know it its the trans to shift while up.....quess i will stick to cluthin above first gear.

 

If you time it just right adn your rpm's are right where they need to be you'll be able to shift into 2nd in a wheelie without using the clutch. While in the wheelies keep some pressure on the underside of the shift peg and it'll loosen up a bit when it's ready to shift. Give it a quick kick up and it'll pop in. I really don't recommend shifting while in a wheelie though, just a personal grudge

 

i have shifteed into second abunch of times in a wheelie. about 3/5 times it will fall out right as i hit the balence point and down i come. no clutch just a blip and preloading the shifter alittle. so no has heard or seen a shift kit for 05' 600rr?

 

Lol, take his word.. sounds like he's had some fun...

Never heard of it ill ask my track friends at work... theyll know where to get one...

 

Haha... you got that right OneWheelinRR. If you don't time it just right and get the rpm's back where they need to be after the shift you'll nose dive everytime. If you're concerned about running out of power band in first, either change your gearing around so you can power wheelie in 2nd (try hopping if you need to) or clutch it up in 2nd. As far as reaching balance point (bp) however, if you pop it up high enough in 1st gear and get into BP zone... you won't have to worry about shifting (unless of course you want to get going faster while in the wheelie). I recommend starting in 2nd gear standing on the pegs, but stagger the pegs. Leave your right foot on the rider peg, and your left foot on the passenger peg. Clutch and/or hop power wheelie at that point. It'll feel awkward at first standing like that, but in the long run your balance will be much easier to maintain. Be safe, have fun!
