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..

 

seems like youre doing more reading than practicing dude lol. and just because you take air out to stunt doenst mean you cant put it back in to ride, practice whatever you prefer just take it serious and go practice

 

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.

 

dude are u serious? i think thats a bit too much for someone whos not even sure what speed to BEGIN practicin at, no offense but ya bad idea 5mph **** is not for someone just askin about attempting whoolies

 

would u rather hav him crash going 30 or 5?

 

a crash is less likley at 30 than 5 thats all, im just a believer in 2nd gear for starters but really dude learn what u want, its just dirty, 5mph, balance point, u told him "just cluch it to bp" at 5mph like its nothing lol, learn what u want tho killa and post here when u need somethin

 

thanks for the info.
really appreciate it. that tank is a good idea never thought about it.

one more last question.

when practicing "whoolies" should my heiny be on the seat
or should I go with the One foot on rear peg and one on the brake?

 

i go staggard for now

 

+1

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)

 

thats true but the thing is if he practices in 2nd its likley hell never wreck doing that like many many other people, if he practice in first at 5 hes gonna wreck, lol, we wreck all the time doin slow ****, not bad ones tho but still
