i own a tb 250 and cant get a wheelie up past about 6 in(if that). I put all my wieght (140 lbs) on the grab par and accellerate full throttle and try to pull up on the handlebars, but it wont go up. anyone got any suggestions?

Hmmm.. My buddy just got a stock tb 250 he is like 125lbs he stands on the grab bar at first he could not do it but he would practice for hours then he got it down really good....now he wheelies good, he nearly fliped it a few times... Maybe your belt is worn and is not grabing hard.. But it should lift with no prob....

 

the belt in in great shape, i checked it out. do you know what he does exactly?

 

All he dose is stand on the grab bar give it full throttle and pull up hard while pushing his weight back and up it comes.....

 

i do this...hold the front brake, give it gas, get the wheels spinning until you hear and feel it about to hit the powerband, let off the brake and pull up. it takes practice.

 

maybe a higher stalling primary spring will help out too

 

hey thanks for all the help. I went outside and practiced for a while, then I finally got it. Now I need to work on holding it up and controlling how far it goes up..(I skid the grab bar on the ground a couple of times[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img])

 

if you are going to start going for distance the key is to get it up...almost on the grab bar and go SLOW...it doesnt have enough power to keep the front end up when throtal is applied alot...most of the time it will start to almost bog down and drop the front down...but every now and then it will stay up and almost come over

 

96trailblazer250, You must have made modifications to your braking system or your ATV is broken, because the left hand brake lever is a four wheel lever, it locks all the wheels, so with a stock machine that is in good condition, it is impossible to do what you're saying.
