    Re: MCN's: How to wheelie

    Slamming a street bike down a bunch of times doing wheelies will eventullay cause leaky seals... even though the seals may apear to be the same remember a dirt bike is maybe 220lbs, and sport bikes weight over 400lbs... probably quite a bit more of suspension travel on dirtbikes too...

    2nd gear wheelies are impossible sitting down for me.
    1st gear wheelies are hard enough and i cant seem to hold them more than a second.
    any thoughts?

    Going to fast when your pulling it up in first and too slow when trying in second...

    Its really a fine line in the perfect clutch slip, if you start out at a slower speed in 1st gear it should be easier for it to some up, but it make sure you cover the rear brake and tap it if it come up too high...
