May be a dumb question, but I'll ask it anyway...

I have no problem standing up my Z250 while either stopped or rolling in first gear, but is there any way to pull a wheelie while moving in any higher gears? Probably not without a manual clutch (which I plan on buying before summer) but Im not the most seasoned rider so maybe there is some technique I don't know?

Thanks...

 

i usually just wind out first then pop the clutch into second which you can do without the manual clutch conversion which i have and highly reccomend, then sometimes you can very quickly shift from 2nd to 3rd and 4th, the highest gear i ever rode a wheelie in was 4th and i got to about mid rane rpms in 4th then it came down

 

Thanks.

I didn't know with that Magura kit you can still use the autoclutch feature...I thought it totally eliminated the autoclutch and you were left with just the manual clutch. I'll definately have one soon, thanks for recommending it.

 

well you're very welcome...oh and check out the post z250s...there's a lot of reccomendations in there

 

there's pictures of the clutch in my picture page...and heres a link to the clutch site

Dont do that, it is horrible for the tranny. If you keep doing it, your just going to round off all the teeth on the gears. The best way to do it is move along slowly in second, then just gas it, pull up on the bars, and lean back. From there you can shift through the gears even without a clutch. I learned in first, then started in second, and it was much easier.

 

it's not bad, it's still got a clutch on it
