Suspension for a wheelie
 

Ive been practicin wheelies and am gettin good at ridin it out using the throttle. I still need practice wit the brake and gettin it to balance point but im not gonna b impatiant wit it. Though im gettin good at ridin it out it still comes down hard every once in a while. I dont wana brake my forks or mess up the suspension at all so i was wonderin if there is a better setup on the bike to use. I have the 05 cbr1k

just give it more gas before you land, takes pratice, accelerate during the landing, make sure you leave yourself room to do that. I never come down hard anymore, unless something goes wrong (strong wind, deer, cat, ect)
I'm using stock suspension, I road with a guy today using stock suspension too, he road a wheelies for a few miles no problems.

thnx. im gettin pretty good at lettin it down easy but was just wonderin if there was a better setting for it in case i had to bring it down hard for any reason. guess the stock setup will do

the stock suspension is fine. Just give it gas when bringing it down so it is smoother
