Raptor Wheelies are ALOT easier than pred, you barley have to pull on it. But, like now, I can get the WHEELIE up, I just cant ride the WHEELIE.

Once you're good at riding wheelies, it's possible to keep about any quad up as long as you have space to go. I've jumped on a Banshee I'd never ridden before and rode a 300' wheelie to prove to the owner that it's possible.
Like Sandman said, it's all about using the rear brake. Throttle control doesn't hurt either, but not using the rear brake DOES HURT.
I think it gets easier the faster you're going, but it can be kind of intimidating the first time to be cruising along at 50mph on two wheels...

First of all.... wrong gear.
1st gear is real easy to pull a wheelie in but it's way too touchy to ride one in
I use third gear. Slide back on the seat and pullllllllll. You have to find the balancing point. For a long time all I could do is power wheelies and when the power ran out, so did the wheelie. If you can get the front end up to that point without having the rev's too high, you can just blirp the throttle to keep it up. At first, you're gonna feel like you're flipping over. That just means you're at the balancing point. Once you get comfortable at that point, Wheelie's can go forever. Power just gets the front end up... balance keeps it up.
Oh yeah, 13 tooth sprocket on the front will help a TON
