are you trying to power wheelie? a sharp on-off-on throttle and it comes up at 7-8k.

 

[MRGM]

Not normally, but if I have a passenger it will slightly lift off around 11-12k.

 

[Doorag]

Mine will lift if I go WOT in first. Never got it to lift in second or higher though. I'm 220 lbs.

Anything can wheelie. Including my TTR125 and my bicycle.

I wheelied a whellchair..........:rof:

 

[Ryan T]

Never tried and don't plan to in the near future.

 

[wrightme43]

Yep and with a vengence at times.

 

[SovietRobot]

If I'm going full throttle, it only comes up when I shift into 2nd(caused by a shock load on the driveline)

If I let off the throttle then get back on it, it'll wheelie.

I'm twice as heavy as the OP so it's a big tough to get it to wheelie without shock loads or clutching.

 

[Fz6Sa]

Sure does, - even in 3rd ....,- did that by accident coming on to the freeway, - guess I was half a sleep, so I forgot to come off the throttle between 2 and 3, dropped the clutch,- and airborne she was! (I must have been in the 12K area)

Might be why your bearings are screwed in the first place...too many wheelies! LOL! Still it's worth bearing wear...so much fun! Naughty on public roads, but fun.

LOL maybe but it is so much fun ......Changed the head bearings lastnite but i'll put that in its own thread later :thumbup:

 

[RyanK]

when it was stock, i'd have to try a little. Now it'll come right up at WOT all on its own. :thumbup:

 

[FZ1inNH]

I'm stock FI and exhaust. She comes up in 1st and 2nd without any trouble.
