unless you got alot of power the only way I can do them is to get a good wheelie goin in 2nd or 3rd then just shift to 4th or 5th keeping the wheelie going. You just gotta find the balance spot (sounds easier than done)

I can shift from 1st to 5th gear on my 300ex, what i do is get used to the balance point so i can go past it and press the rear brake to keep it down, that is how i got used to it, then shift from 3rd to 4th, when your in 3rd, shift it BARELY beyond the balance point, and let off and pull in the clutch and shift, when you pull in the clutch, the momentum to the rear wheels slow down keeping you from going all the way back so youll have just enough time to shift and hit the gas to keep it from going all the way down. If you need some more help just ask but this should help some [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

On my 400 all i have to do is lean back and get it to the balance point and shift. If there is anyone around you that can wheely good watch how they do it and practice.

Sure i'll tell ya how to do it . Get a really fat person to sit down on the back of the quad then you can do a wheelie in all the gears. ~ lol

when i do wheelies, i try puttin my left foot back inside the grab bar and the right foot on the peg so if i go too far back, i can hit the back brake, sounds like a wimpy way to do them, but it saves my grab bar from bending, and when u have a one piece subframe, thats a very good thing
