yes, just ride slowly in 1st gear, increasing your speed gently until you get into the powerband, then pull up on the bars and nail it simultaneously. Voila.

Oh, but remember to keep your rear brake covered otherwise you risk flipping it.

Suspsect you'll need to use the clutch on a restricted NSR, but even drestricted, it's not really worth it as you have to be /very/ good to keep it going.

If i can wheelie an RX50, you should be able to do it on an NSR125.
But because of the gearing on my hog i can only do it from a standstill. Just give the bike plenty of revs and dump the clutch in 1st, will take a few trys to get the clutch right (as your mind will be telling you DONT DO THAT!!) Also you'll need to shift your weight around the bike pretty fast. Try it at different revs each time for a better height, just dont flip it, you might even be able to keep it up because you have a more powerful engine than me! I wouldent make a habit of it either, it puts quite a strain on your clutch and gearbox!

Hi, as I say on almost all the wheelie threads, you can wheelie ANY BIKE! its all about your body positioning. If you hang off the back like a monkey sot he front end is light before you even set off then open the throttle it should come up nice and easy and you can control it and find your balancing point with th rear brake, Thumbs Up Dan

bidman - you really think that's likely for someone that can't wheelie on a peaky 2stroke that's relatively heavy?

Not all bikes /will/ wheelie without some modifications, for instance better tyres.

Why?
The restricted NSR may be a bit more powerful, but it also weighs a lot more and is geared for around 100mph probably.

my speedfight 100 doesnt wheelie and its got a little bit more power than most 50's id imagine. Too damn front end heavy. And ive tried loads to get the front up includint hanging off the back almost. The most ive got is a few inches for about a metre.


unless I got a PM tuning exhaust (£240 for a scooter pipe wtf?!) which gives I think its 14bhp over the stock 9bhp I dont think you could wheelie one of these.

Ive not managed to wheelie my DT yet although I havent tried but I have slipped the clutch to fast before and it hasnt lifted the front. Damn I cant wait to derestric it and get a tuned exhaust Smile

I doubt you'd be able to get the front wheel up through power and a bit of clutch slip, as its quite a heavy bike. It'd come up by dumping the clutch, but thats just shit and pointless. If you want a 125 that will wheely without dumping the clutch, get an RD125LC like me, front wheel comes up with some clutch slip, all the crosser style bikes will be the same, as their power to weight ratios are better than the likes of RS's etc.

Not really worth wheelying a 125 though. Confused

Better to learn on a 125 and bin it than anything bigger as it hurts the wallet more. Plus 125's are alot easier to find the balance point at lower speeds than on bigger bikes.

Shocked flat tyres are pretty common not often you see a flat wheel though.

geordie-nsr you can easily get it up, you have to do some work and not rely on the bikes power, but if you no longer want to learn to wheelie...

Not really better to learn on a 125. Personally I would say that a 125 is massively harder to find and keep the balance point than on a bike with more power.
Because you have very little power to play with, you have to get it very high, very quickly, which is the sort of thing that is likely to lead to flipping it. You also don't have the engine braking to shut the throttle off and bring it down with that decently.

Yes, you can get it up if you try, but it will come back down again pretty quickly in most cases, making it a rather futile exercise.

i have found that a kmx200 with a kmx125 gearbox sprocket will wheelie just a little bit, in 1st/2nd and sometimes in 3rd, quite nicely!
