John descibed one wheely I did as going to '11:30' Confused

- really need to sort out some instincts for the rear brake, only use it when I'm intentionally thinking about it.

I do make an effort a lot of the time. However the TRX is relatively not that great for wheelies (only a bit less power than your bike, but getting on for twice the weight probably).

The problem is the road I've been doing it on is quite bumpy, so having trouble keeping it from wobbling side to side, meaning I'm concentrating on that.

Want to get to a decent place and pratce pulling it higher then tapping the rear brake straight away to get used to both the height and using the brake.

The thing I found with covering the rear brake is you have to get used to having your feet on the pegs differently, with the heel rather than the ball of your foot being on the peg. Once you get used to having your foot in that position and practice using the rear brake to bring the front back down it builds muscle memory and you should develop a reflex for using it without having to think about it. I'm a bit slack about doing this on the YZ though, because the engine braking is usually enough to bring it back from the brink... Embarassed

Same thing goes for changing gear during a wheelie, get your feet in the right place and do it enough times and your muscles will remember the exact amount of movement needed and it becomes instinctive.
