I was clutching up pretty good, then I got a new back tire and I can't clutch up that good anymore. People always say don't chop it but I got it open all the way and when I clutch up. Now I'm barley getting it up. And I'm doing the samething as befor so what's up?

Try hitting it in first & let it come up too fast. When it doe's let off, change gears& get back on it before the front thoches down. You want to be getting back on the throttle when the bike is headed back down too fast to sustain the wheelie.Your not going for distance or hight. It's about timing for now.

I'mhoping since it's 10/22 now you no longer have the problem. (New tire) If you have 50 milesor more on it & still have the problem try droping the tire pressure1 lb at a time till you feel a change. You need to stop raging on the clutch or your going to have the same problem sooner or later with a more expensive fix.

Eventually your going towant to be able to stall it out enough to back off the throttle and change gears. Otherwise you will always be a stand up comedian. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

I confess, I never learned standing up & now I'm too old to learn new tricks.
I don'tbounce worth a crap anymore but I have my fun going through the gears with the angle in my favor.I usually ride with about a quarter throttleand around 70mph I'll flert with the BP cause I'm comfortablewith the angle caused by the wind force. My best is short of a mile. So yes I am a hack & have no business giving advice.It could be worse though. I could be another hardly rider.
I understand the phobia a lot of people have about changing gears.
When I'm hitting it down the road I can up shiftwithout the clutch smooth as glass. But every time I bring it up with one hand .
(the bestbenefit of the *** where it should be tecknique) I always use the clutch to catch second.
