i got it up once..but it keeps lifting me off of my seat before i can get a power wheelie going..just wanna know if the F4I has what it takes to do it? and if so what the hell am i doing wrong?

 

Lifting you off the seat? Please describe. Something sounds a bit odd there. How many miles have you got in the saddle? If it's a low number wait. If it is a high number, you're thinking about it too hard.

The F4 pops up nicely in 1/2 - and clutches up in 3... I would be surprised if the F4i was any different.

I'm not a fan of giving wheelie advice because I don't want to hear about the crash later and have to feel bad.

 

if your in a high enough rpm it will.

 

Roll the throttle at about 6-7k, she will lift up like a feather...

 

I weigh about 3 bills and can power wheelie in first. I've never tried in 2nd. It should come naturally. A key note is that you should try to sit as far back on the seat as possible while still being comfortable enough to control the bike if something were to happen unexpectedly.

 

at around 7krpm (which translates to ~40mph) sitting back on the seat... you'll need a good stretch of road.
I'm assuming from your 'super member' status that you have sufficient experience... always cover your rear brake though.
never powered in 2nd that would require long roads which I don't do wheelies on.

 

The F4i is one of the best bikes to do a wheelie on, I have never powered a wheelie in 2nd, I used my clutch to do it. For more advice, I recommend going to the "Stunters Corner" forum for more expert advice.

 

You need to be really careful with power wheelies, the best thing to do is to learn how to clutch it up

 

I've got about 6 inches on an uphill by mistake

 

+1 - at this point i've done 3 wheelies, all of them were incidental, all of them in 1st gear, all of them the clutch was fully engaged. Probably more like 2-3 inches but enough where the front end goes completely weightless
