wow...finally someone that knows what they are talking about. drop a tooth or two on the from or add three to six on the rear. it may not seem like a lot but it gives you a lot more torque...thus wheelies. and dont try stand ups until your comfy with sitting wheelies and i would say even comfy at 2nd gear sitters but some might find that a little to carefull. dont pull on the bars at all when your first starting...especially in first gear. thats a recipe for a loop out if i have ever heard one. in first the engine will have more than enough power to pull the front end in the air and you dont want to be off balance if you need to make a weight shift. if you need help bringing up the front end roll off like everyone says. this action compresses your forks...and then when you go from rolling off to hitting the gas you not only get wheel torque you get a quick lift from your forks sending your front end in the air. happy wheelies to you and remember to stay out of traffic when doing so.
