I don't think that it is hard to wheely a 400ex. you can't be afraid to fall off either. anyone that can ride wheelies has fallen off sometime or another. I fell off my blaster 20 times atleast before I could ride them well. Keep on trying and you will get it eventually.

 

put your foot in the grap bar with the same legs nee on the seat and use this as your leverage tool

I agree, keep at it and you'll eventually get it.

 

keep one foot on the grab bar, and one on the rear brake when you start. then as you get better and dont need the rear brake you can put that foot on the grab bar and the other on the shifter and shift threw gears. but until then we can keep practicing.

 

OHYAH400 is right on the money. Foot hooked in the grab bar knee on the seat and the other on the peg and pull up in 2nd gear.

 

pull in the clutch, give it some gas, and then pop the clutch-on my 300ex i find it easier to use 2nd gear-you wont hit high rpms as fast as in 1st.

 

Flore it until you get it up high enough, then play with the gas. It might help to sit back a little on the seat.

 

Ok get going in second gear in medium to high rpm range. Scoot back on the seat a little. Let off the gas for about half a second then go WFO(wide fookin open) and pull back on the bars. Be prepared to go off the back because sooner or later it will happen. Oh and the balance point you will know when you hit it. It is when you are not having to throttle or brake to keep the wheelie going and just feels like you are in the air.

 

Rev it up and pop the clutch is the easyest way to me.. Other than that you can put it into second and lean back..

 

Also stay off the back grab bar that is a good way to get urself hurt.
