I've worked out that my bike refuses to power wheelie, however, if I am at a stand still and I go to pull away quickly, the front wheel lifts. Is is just a matter of letting the clutch out faster? Btw, the bike is a 125 4T trailey Razz .

Best to do go along at a walking pace.

You need to make sure you are dumping the clutch rather than letting it out. Needs to be as instant as possible between in and out.

So, clutch in, rev and out again very quickly.

This is a four stroke 125 remember, so more like 'start the bike after it stalled and try again' Razz.

did a respectable (to me) wheelie on the FZR today.. i gave up trying to wheelie at the lower rev range in 1st, so cruised at 6k, and clutched it there... went up nicely
