Accellerate to rougly 60KM in first gear... then even out your accelleration.... let the bike settle for half a second and then CRANK IT OPEN in one go

How can you not wheelie anymore in 1st? If you are siting upright & slightly towards the back it should be doing a wheelie by 8-10k/rpm..

Gizmo thats a bit cruel, I have seen a heap of those vids where they stand on the rear pegs with one foot and just give the throttle a bit of a twist.
I have even seen the outtakes from the videos where they do that.
Cruise along in second at 120 kph and pull the clutch in and gas it up and release the clutch i am sure the result wil be spectaculer or buy a 10r or join a circus.
Mine has been know to get lift off over bumps mid corner or even on downhill runs in second and i am sure its been trying to lift off on the exit of turn 1 at Queensland raceway but i lean over the bars to hold it down and keep it flat.
I could get the front of a cbr250 up a bit by rolling at 25kph in first and revving it to 15000rpm and dropping the clutch but only did it a few times and changed bikes.

Sell it to me cheap. I'll give you $2,500

cos like gizmo said, great for the track.
Invest the $2,500 in a new 10r

Check your "Chain Tension" & sprockets for wear. Also the Cuch drive can get loose from abuse & make it harder to "getuponone". Not that i condone such actions

why do you want to get it up.
Just a chance to bin it IMO.
No I am not pro wheelie, I think they are dangerous, I dont know how many stacks and vids of stacks I have seen due to wheelies.
Now accidental power wheelies is different.
Be carefull dude.

i absolutly agree with you
but since we are riding powerful bikes, its good to know how to ride it under all situation, if i can control the bike like a pro then next time i have a accidental power wheelies then i won't panic, i will know how to handle it
it's like fast lean low cornering, it's an essential skills to survival , one day i might need that skill to survive in an accident
but it's also good to know some tricks.................
now the good news is, on my way back home tonite from work
i tried it again in 1st gear and sit uprite and i got it EVERYTIME!!!!
i'm so happy now
will try to maintain it next time

wowo i'm re born again!!!!
