Wheelie Practice with JD

[Bishbash]

Got a lesson from JD on how to wheelie, started on clutch ups, but after a scary clutch up moment which went a little too high, we decided to hit the dual carriage ways to practice on holding the wheelie. I was doing 1st gear power wheelies and JD doing his thing;

Enjoy!!!

Those forks have taken a bit of a bashing I know what you mean about clutch ups, First decent one I did felt like I was vertical In reality it was maybe a foot off the ground. Haven't done one since.

I was watching thinking "How the hell is he power wheelying an R6" Then i read your sig.

Cool vid, looks like your getting the hang of it. I've till got to man up & have a proper practice but i'm similar to Marki. Although my bike does do quite a few unintentionally power wheelies & they come up/down very gently but can never replicate them.

[Ichy]

N30 showed me how to very simply bounce up the bike just by reving to 6k ish, quick power off, power on back to roughly the same revs then just steadily increase the revs. Pretty much works 8 times out of ten on my CBR6 and I am really bad.

i wouldnt be listening to any lessons if thats the teacher

Says the guy who flipped a bike at standstill.

I can wheelie several people on here can back me up but when its a windy as it was i dont fancy flipping a bike im getting rid off in the next two weeks.

I was shit on the r1 though ill take that

But again wind was a big factor

Ciaran, set the sound setting to lo, otherwise you get that annoying white noise Only set it to high if you attach it to your helmet


And they're based towards Reading. More Newbury/Guildgord. BW is south of Oxford... I'm in between We usually meet up at H cafe, south of Oxford it seems on monday nights (even though I am bikeless)


And JD can wheelie, I was honestly surprised by those wheelies and I've seen him do far far better ones

Bish, try putting the camera on the bike? It'll be easier to see when you're wheelieng as sometimes it took me a couple of seconds you had hoisted it up


God I need a bike again

One thing I will say, JD wheelied better on his FZ6.

[Bishbash]

Yeah I will have a play and see if I can get a better position on the bike.

Good to meet some more chaps off here on Monday and the old faces as well , I like H Cafe, much nicer than Ace I think. Nicer ride up there too!
