I think mine is at like 10:37 too give or take 29min, no seriously I don't even know how to answer that question. I don't know what time my balance point is , usually about 5min after I get on the bike and about 3grand because that is the price of my bike now that I wrecked it. It is different for every kinda bike, rider, stand up or sit down, wind speed, road grade up hill or down hill speed of bike and the weight of your nut sack because that plays a critical roll in weight distribution . Just go out clutch up( don't power one up read the post that I did on the power wheelie question) a wheelie and keep going back until your not gaining any speed that is the start of balance point... later

rpm's dont matter, you can go right to bp from a dead stop, or slipping it up at 10k rpm's

from 5500-6000 bp is 10:30 anything between that and 9000 is 10:54 and anything past 15000rpm is right at 12 oclock so make sure you whack the throttle open hard when u bounce it up

that would be a good line if it was 10:30am/pm and someone asked for the time.. *sighs* that will never happen but i would be like "it's about...." drive off and pop that sh*t to 10:30

I always say, when you want to let off the throttle, you are probably almost there...

It depends on how fast you are going and what position you are on the bike. If your are going really fast than the BP will be lower and if you are standing staggered than the balance point will be lower. Its all weight distribution and speed. The RPM's wont tell you how high or low you are. I can be running at the balance point and 6 grand or 12 grand or whatever.
If you are doing 40 mph at the balance point than obviously your RPM's are lower than if you are doing 70
