I think so but not quite as good as the Honda's I don't think. It's a lot easier to get the front end up to begin with though.

Yes...3rd is easy. If you just pump the throttle a couple times and then pin it and jerk you can bring it up in any gear. I can anyways. Ive got it on video but i dont know how to get it on here. Ill be gettin a new computer soon, hopefully in the next couple weeks and ill try to get it on here. My kfx is bone stock by the way.

I can get the front up in 1-4, not 5th.
I think the balance is very good.
No matter what it will take practice.

I wouldnt doubt it 1fastz, I saw a video of a guy wheelying in 5th. It wasnt too far though. I can get them up in 4th, but Im small and its not the easiet for me to pull the front end up far enough in 4th. I think 3rd gear is the best for wheelies, especially standing up.

I can shift mine into 5th also, but if it starts to come down it doesnt like to go back up.
