Best entry bike IMO, you can get it just manifest it. R3 is boring already nvm my first bike, I’d never buy a R3 unless it’s for my gurl. Bored on my R7 but, I have learned multiple lessons on it. I’m learning and the power is decent.
This is my favorite YT vid of yours so far! And I think this is the first time I’ve seen you wheelie that wasn’t a POV angle. Really good tutorial and even managed to sneak in a promo at the end 😁. Definitely down to see a part 2!
Hey bro great tutorial, I’ve been riding for almost 15 years. Let me say I’m no teacher, it’s hard to explain; plus I don’t want to be feeling guilty from some newbies misinterpretation dropping his bike. You explained it perfectly. I’ve been wheeling almost as long as I’ve been riding, started on dirt bikes back when I was knee high to a grasshopper.
The guy isn’t telling anyone to do wheelies and be irresponsible on the road. He’s just showing people how to do them. If you weren’t curious either you wouldn’t have watched. Great video.
You are right, that a small bike can wheelie. Back in 2003, I learned to clutch wheelie in first gear at 8000 RPMs on my small Ninja 250R to pop the front tire up at a 45 degree angle for about 10 feet. Heart racing as the jolt up was shocking each time. The landings were tough on the front tire/fork too. Not as much fun like I was expecting even with practice. I think it was stretching the heck out of my chain too, needing replacement. My interest in wheelies faded soon after, with discipline early to no longer feel the need to wheelie, even if requested by others which is often when on a sport bike. "Do a wheelie." Best to ignore them is how I feel. They won't pay for it if something goes wrong. My current Ninja 650 will sometimes slightly power wheelie from a quick take off a few inches, but that's enough for me these days. Interesting video and cool bike R7, thanks.
One important thing to note, is if you over grip that throttle with your wrist, meaning, if you place your wrist over the throttle with your grip angling down, and then when you try to "pop" or "pull" the bike up, your weight shifts back...guess what else will happen? Your wrist will then pull back in normal position with your grip increasing the throttle more.... You see this in nearly every amateur video where the rider gives it throttle and isn't ready for the sudden jerk while giving it more throttle because they've got flung back while still holding onto the grip on the throttle.
Once you can chase em, instead of being tempted to chase as long as possible, now youre in the phase where u want to intentionally bring them down using rear brake (this phase is longer and harder than the wheelie chase phase). I know, no cool points but its what you need to level up to ACTUAL wheelies. This Builds the muscle memory in your right foot to be able to actually use the rear brake and stay relaxed when your bring it up past BP and to understand how much pressure does what. Then combine muscle memory of the throttle with your new foot brake abilities to bring it up past BP so you can slow them down. BTW "covering the brake" is BS if you havent put in the work to use it because when you have that "oh shit" moment, and you will, Your fight or flight will kick in and your first instict will be to jump off the bike or hang on and pray the engine brake brings it down. EDIT: it's possible to bypass the rear brake learning phase if you have good throttle control and ride them out pretty decent at BP but you will be hard capped and gain false confidence and the second you give it a squirt too much gas at BP its loop city so remember to practice putting them down early on for much successs 👍
I’ve been riding for 30 years. The only time I ever been down was while doing a stand up wheelie. I’ve done them 1000 times before but that day I totaled my bike and damn near killed myself. Took my body 2 years to heal after that wreck. Since then I haven’t done one 🤣💯
Great video! You forgot to mention throttle control. You dont want to bring it up and bimp the throttle like a dirtbike. Thats gonna help on looping the bike. You want to bring it up and then maintain the throttle smoothly. It in that you will find that sweet spot, The balance point. I use 2nd gear and then grab third. I can wheelie my Busa for a mile or more. I end up with speeds over 120mph. Feels fantastic ! Enjoy
Ugh. That must have absolutely sucked. I feel for you, and your new bike. Must have been a very “uncomfortable “ experience as you had to pick up your bike, collect the pieces, while drivers were slowly passing you at the intersection. But hey, that’s a memory you’ll have for the rest of your life. Ha ha. Anyway, no risk…no reward, right?
Great video ! Better than any other I’ve watched. Only thing your forgot to mention (I think) is to keep the handlebar straight when landing the front wheel. It’s as important as covering the rear brake.
Guys I just wanna point this out quickly, Im a new rider I have been riding for 3 months only and Im practicing wheelies every single day. Long story short ; THE WAY YOU SIT on your bike is a game changer !!! If you are having issues or if you are "stagging" with your progress, try different seating position, it will increase your skills I promise !! Anyway, great video !!! Loved it !! Keep it up homie !!
Man I've always wanted to ride wheelies soooo bad... but I am too scared to dump my bike. I'll drag knee and redline in 6th but not wheelie. 😣Too ashamed to say how long I have been riding - probably longer than the age of most people who are watching - and I still cant work up the nerve to learn to wheelie.🤦♀ I suppose everything can be fixed or replaced but maybe I should just get a 'practice' bike. Thanks for posting this, I am going to try your method! 🤙
Get a mondial drift l or smt if you have that specific model. People do sick wheelies even with a person at the backseat in here. It seems cool as fuck and I wanna give it a try after I sell my scooter but scooter is so good so far
Really easy on torquey bikes too had a neighbor blare his harley every night waking my newborn up at night finally after about 5 days straight and all hours of the night i popped on his culdesac with a muffler delete on the Z1k he never did it again after that
Learn wheelies on a trail bike, less fear and expense when it goes wrong 😂 I ride a 1000 and yes can wheelie, but my fun bike is a DRZ125, can’t get booked doing a wheelie on a trail bike.
So true. And I personally think idiots do wheelies n the street. If you crash doing a wheelie in the rd and you crash and I see it, I’m pulling my gixxer over to laugh. Stupidity is to be laughed at.
I'm 56 years old and have always ridden a sport bike. I currently have a R1 and I'm going to try this. If I die I'm coming back to haunt you and your r7. 👻👻👻👻👻
@@lhasinc I'm in Tennessee and it's been raining haven't had a chance to try yet. I'm scared I'm going to mess my bike up but I'm still going to try it.
Get a dirt cheap bike to learn how to wheelie cause you WILL drop it and be sure you're good to fukkin up a bike cause the likelihood is 80% or better that you can cause damage that would be expensive to fix. Try a Grom or a Dirt Bike and wheelie practice on SOFT surfaces so when you drop it you won't damage it too bad hopefully. When You wanna step up to clutch up's be good at doing power up's first.
I found that lowering the rear tyre pressure really helped with stability and control....drop it to 20psi roughly and until you work it out, that soft rear tyre really helped me.
With my gsxr 750 I would bounce the front end, while hitting the throttle when it bounced back up. It would lift on power alone, but it was at decent speed.
on a 1000rr just hit the gas and you're up in the air lol... make sure to cover the rear brake... and be prepared to change fork seals every 2 weeks lol
most wheelie videos have super short instructions, then the rest of the video is them just doing endless wheelies. so THANK YOU for being super in depth and taking the time to explain the wheelie process, it helps a lot man!
Ive been trying to learn on my GSXR 600 for a few days, this video I think will help me because I was trying to release clutch too slow, and I like how you said to rev to a certain spot/rpm range and dump clutch. I have been practicing mostly first gear because it comes up so quick and I couldnt get wheel up in 2nd but I think with your tips I will. Gonna go out tonight or tmrw and practice.
seems legit. I been riding for just under a year, and finally feeling brave enough after daily commuting to attempt a wheelie in good weather. I like your explanation, I just need an empty space to attempt now. (alone is good advice too)
I've ridden sports bikes for 4 decades, own a CBR FireBlade RRW and take it to track days. My advice to any rider is: It has two wheels for a good reason and keep them both glued to the road. Pulling wheelies will reck head stock bearings, fork internals and seals,
Hey nice video but I had a question like why does my footage look like shit when I upload it on yt like i just cut a little on capcut on pc and it looked great then but on yt looks really bad
Wheelies are easy. Sustained wheelies difficult. Lowering the bike back down on the front wheel gently difficult. Not crashing while you learn difficult.
This definately something that helps start doin wheelies. What you could involve is what you should do with your knees. I'd be curious if you use the legs to keep you on the bike, or you only rely on the butt. I'd guess like in most situations the hands should be relaxed. For a beginner I think this additional info would be helpful as well. Thanks for the video!
Guys please try on a small bike like a honda grom or a dirt bike, don't skuff up your expensive bike as well it would be much easier for you to learn and much safer
Well, wheelies has some practical use, but mostly offroad trails, long and large wheelies are more for showy stuff, however, if you can wheelie long and big, your Motorcycle control would be phenomenal, you would be a safer rider.............
Drop clutch in first when the bike is at balance point let go of the gas and immediately shift into second and open the throttle the bike should be back at balance point and just ride it for a half mile.
Instructions unclear: tried disassembling my couch while in first gear-could not shift into second easily as a result, I opened my throttle body up at balance point&was not able to go for half a mile.
Once you get it high to balance point and you're still chasing it you have to go back past balance as fast as possible so you don't run out of rpm, hit the brake but don't let it go forward too much in front of balance point to slow them down you're basically rocking from behind balance point to just at balance point and then back behind it.
First gear. 3000 rpm, let go off for 1-2 seconds until rpm is under 1000, full throttle (obviously start with less than full, go half throttle and go up from there)
Well i did everything you said but my vespa still wont wheelie, and i called tge manufacturer avout the location of the clutch and they laughed at me, am i missing somethinf?
Learned to do wheelies on my push bike, then a dirt bike and then a road bike. If you can't can't do low speed turns and figure 8s then lern to do that first. When the front wheel comes down and your learning, you need to know how to control the bike once it comes down.
Clutch dump wheelies are the most dangerous - Yes if well practiced you can pretty much nail them, but the margin for error and looping it is way wider
Back in high school early ‘70’s a guy had a new Honda CL 350. During lunch break he’d often wheelie the whole length if the parking lot. A good 100ft or more. How no one got hurt is beyond me.
Totaled my bike after watching this video

Does dropping the clutch hurt the bike ? I think so that’s why I power wheelie!

Why is America full of empty parking lots?

I liked hearing you tell beginners to cover rear brake more than once.
It will save you
That thing is your lifeline😅
ye but kiss goodbye to your fork seals and dent your headset bearing cups.
@@cabbage681 it’s a part of stunting :)
Best Tip- KEEP YOUR EYES UP. Look at the tree tops. Bike goes where your eyes go, Cornering, Jumping and Wheelies too.
The guy isn’t telling anyone to do wheelies and be irresponsible on the road. He’s just showing people how to do them. If you weren’t curious either you wouldn’t have watched. Great video.
@user-mz3fc5wj7v you must know him because this video is a death trap. Does anyone know how to wheelie would say that

He's right. The three step process becomes natural instinct after awhile. Just always respect the bike's power and modulate.

I'm glad I saw this comment. All wheelie videos I've seen over the years, not one has mentioned over-gripping throttle and why it's a no no
You helped me the most when you said "hold the throttle and see where your rpm is at" i always kept bouncing but didnt know how to keep the wheel up.

Wheelies are easy. Sustained wheelies difficult. Lowering the bike back down on the front wheel gently difficult. Not crashing while you learn difficult.
crashing while you learn is a no go for me. Thats why I can count all my wheelies on one hand
should i turn off traction control?

This definately something that helps start doin wheelies.

How do you know it's a good tutorial if it didn't work for you?
im learning wheelies on my ninja 250 i have to rev it to 10k rpms to get it up high enough XD nearly redlining it
On 1st or 2nd gear?
Love how you explained center of gravity
I can get it up but my girlfriend says I need to try harder to go farther.
was she talking about bikes or sum else??? 😭
Clutch dump wheelies are the most dangerous - Yes if well practiced you can pretty much nail them, but the margin for error and looping it is way wider
Back in high school early ‘70’s a guy had a new Honda CL 350. During lunch break he’d often wheelie the whole length if the parking lot. A good 100ft or more. How no one got hurt is beyond me.
