Well......if they was no wind, and you was on a straight black top road, and the sun shining....and the birds was singing, I would say about 90 mph....Hang on, that was a flash back, something I read a while back on the Yamaha forum...lol[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] I would say xtremeskier is right on the money.


Welcome to the forums!

Thank you,
would a modified transmision spring kit help to get it there quicker,
I've seen guy's doing wheelies with there scrambler on the forum,
but I think i can't do it with mine. (only have it for two weeks)
Before with my modified raptor it was very easy to do this even in second gear.
Maybe the modified transmision could help here also.

to tell u the truth it took me along time be4 i could get my front end up, but i first got it with both knees on the seat, then one, and now i can do them standing up or sitting down, but only from a dead stop or at the top of a hill. I think after awhile i just kinda figured out a way lol, u'll get it figured out, it did help a bit with my pipe to but u'll get it figured out

Yes, a clutch kit will help you get up to speed faster and make the wheelies much easier
