Roll along about 10mph in first with the clutch out. Clutch in, just past biting point, rev it beyond 10k, drop the clutch out, and up she comes. Thumbs Up

Its all very well being able to lift the front wheel on a 125 but it takes talent to keep it up. When I had my TZR 125, many moons ago I found it impossible to keep the wheel up for more than a second. If you can keep it up on a 125 you can wheelie anything.

I wheelied an XR125 once... purely by accident.

Had to go home and have a little sit down after that.

I can wheelie my 50cc ped, so i guarentee that a 125 would be possible Smile

It is possible, but very, very hard to do a sustained one on a bike like the RS.
Trail bikes with similar engines and lower gearing are much better - as are bikes like the cg125, which has much lower gearing.

Basically, if you were able to get it high enough, you would have to be pretty skilled to keep it there - and would probably crash trying. if you weren't. However that's not really an issue, because if you have to ask the question, it's unlikely you could get it high enough.

Only 2nd? They usually power wheelie well into 3rd and sometimes 4th if you add a spoon of marmite to the petrol.

Nah but it was tuned a couple times. Was a fast little bike. Shit on oil tho and believe me the wheelies werent massive. It took some getting up.

I can lift my tzr 50 easily by doing that clutch method. But i have to stand up and pull cause it isnt powerful enough. Mine is destricted though and catches 95km/h on a straight.

Would it be possible to do one on a 125 Cruiser type bike?
