Lol i agree with pretty much everyones advice.....i've wheelied bicycles, dirtbikes, quads...but when i first got my 954 i never wheelied anything with that much power. First def get used to wheeling a dirtbike or something. Dont go out n whack your throttle at 20 miles an hour either.....your pants will be full of brown playdoe n your bike will prob be laying on the ground somewhere. When i was first learning to do power wheelies, before i learned clutching it up...i would take it up to about 5k let off a little, not to much, then snap it back, DONT WHACK IT WITH EVERY YOU GOT!!! but if you want to learn, i guess try that...get used to the feel of the tire being off the ground.

i been riding a 54 for about a year now and can power up and clutch up the wheel in 2nd gear and can keep it up as long as the second gear rev limit, but i am trying to figure out the 3rd gear wheelie, seems hard on the stock sprocket but there has to be a certain combination with the rpm rev and speed. boy its fun but also have to stay in the limit cuaz really dont wanna drop this beaty and mess it up. hehe

This is something I have not tried. I always power em up, but very sloppy and somewhat scary to be honest. How high do you take your rpms when clutching it up? Average here would be nice. Im afraid that if I clutch it up Ima get carried straight to my head.

bounce it and power up @ 70 mph in 3 no problem mine will do it with stock gear. it gets a little scketchy @ 100 though it might be me!!

start by just rolling on the throttle till you feel the front start to lift it will do it on its own in first. that will get you used to the power and feel of the bike. once you know how the bike is going to react on one wheel start clutching it up. if you have never clutched one up learn on something else to find out how much throttle to clutch you need then practice
