Learning to clutch wheelie in third gear is a little tricky but you feel much more under control even though your going faster. I found that you have to give it almost full throttle, at least 3/4 when you pull in the clutch then dump it hard. I also replaced my stock throttle tube with a motion pro R-6 for more response. The sweet spot is around 48mph
Billy Goats yea I just learned in 2nd yesterday. I dump the clutch around 7-8 thousand and it’s exactly how I felt when I was doing 45-50 felt so in control and doesn’t feel like I’m going to loop it
I have a hard time watching the RPM's because the display is so low. The first thing I changed on my bike was removing the movement in the handlebars. I added washers in between the bar mounts and triple clamps. I also replaced the fork springs with RACE TECH. Ordered them from SOLOMOTO. Both of these made a huge improvement in the handling. I cant wait to replace the tires because the stock touring tires have no feedback. Other than that this has been a great motorcycle to commute on
I also replace the handlebars with Renthal Street Fighters. I still get some vibration since Most bar wights don't fit Renthals but would rather have some vibration than narrow handlebars. This winter I will jimmy rig some bar wights and install a light kit. I would like to upgrade the exhaust but i leave my home at 4:30 in the morning and don't want to disturb my neighbors. If I can wheelie in third gear in this bike stock than what could an exhaust system possibly do?
havent seen brenden in forever, Nice video man CONGRATS ON 100 Subs, thats awesome, keep up the good work

Do you top off the oil when you do wheelies?
Natas N nope. I put what’s recommended which is 2.75 qt
If you’re talking about the grom- I add a little extra. Stock oil pump. Ticks like a bitch, runs like a dream. HONDA!
I got a fz and ppl say to fill it more then the 2.75qt when your doing wheelies. Sweet Honda though
