I AGREE DOCDAVE

practice, practice FALL practice some more


Wheelies are not only cool looking they are also a benefit when blasting through the woods and you need to bunny hop things![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Default shifting during a wheelie, can anyone do it?

I just started practicing wheelies about 3 months ago and now I can ride one for some time but really I am not going fast at all. I just keep the same speed and just put around. A friend of mine can take his front wheels off his bike because the only time his bike is on all fours is when its parked. He rides them up the hills and back down with out letting the front wheels down. Its unbelieveable! He is about 42 years old and has been riding since he could remember.

i can go as far as i want any anything but my raptor. I think my float levels are wrong or something because it start running out of fuel after a little while. Also try to learn to use your rear brake when you go to far back start out slow though. With a little practice you can ride a wheelie as slow or as fast as you want to.
