On my old Mojave, I could wheelie until I hit unlevel ground! It's pretty easy, and for me to help balance, I would look at the front tires just to give me a better idea of how high the front end was. just be careful, don't hit covered up rocks and fly off to one side and crack all your fenders[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

i have a warrior and can ride wheelies pretty good.
i would say practice riding with your knee on the seat and once you get good at that try it sitting down. that balance point will come naturally. it did for me.

put yor knee on the seet and your foot inside the grab bar. pop the clutch hit the gas and lean back. Be careful to take yor foot out if you start to go back to far.

I have a Raptor, thats how I do them. I would suggest putting your left knee on the seat and leaning back, but make sure to be ready to hit the foot brake if you go to far back.

well on my ex i just put it in 2nd or 3rd and sit on the back of the seet and use the power usually i dont even yank the bars. i think that everyone has their own style to do wheelies. just watch out you can get some serious road rash if you flip siting down

I like to do wheelies when i cruising in 3rd or 4th, i think its easier and you gan go longer b/c of momentum. Plus its nard hard on you machine
