another wheelie question?
Hey fellas.
I've been reading a lot of stuff on wheelies.
My question is should i be practicing doin wheelies at 15/20 mph in first, or for beginners I should go faster like 45/50 in second.
since speed will balance the bike better?
also everybody says to lower their tire pressure lower than 30psi.
will doin this prevent me from doin twisties?
usually when I ride I tend to do both..

get one of those protable air thing that use CO2 tanks....like $20 bucks at cycle gear...the tanks tho u should get at big5 or sportsmart....cyclegears prices on the tanks are ridiculous.
about ur wheelies, i suggest u do it at 5mph and try to get to bp.
note that if the road is not flat, lowering ur tire pressure will just make things worst....because when u have more air, you're on less tire....the less air, the more tire.

and ya, i know what you mean....didnt't realize i that i was makin it sound easy.
2nd gear is good but u need alot of room...also, somewhere with no cops.....which is very hard to find.
plus, if you've got a cage and are streetfighered, u don't have much to lose. so crashing @ 5mph will most likely not cause any damage(to the bike)
