how to wheelie tutorial

[agentpineapple]

i watched these vids years ago and i really liked them, the fella called downshift83.
he's a yank who was living in italy and he teaches himself to wheelie, no yankie bullsh1t, he takes it nice and easy and talks you thru it really well.
heres some links.....

Not bad vids. I'll get around to doing one on the DR-Z at some point. I just need to slow them down a bit first.

If you can, Get yourself along to a clutch wheelie school. Unfortunately the one I used to help out at isn't running at the moment. This one is meant to be ok though http://www.learn2wheelie.co.uk/index.html

If you decide to go, let me know. I might see if I can get along too

I enjoyed those.

The guy starts from being pretty bad in video 1, and progresses throughout.

I would say im somewhere similar to where he is in video 2, I can clutch them up pretty high, but cant keep them on balance point for long.

Watching these has given me a bit of confidence to practice more and learn to keep them up and eventually do them with the back pegs like he does. He makes it look so easy

What we need is someone on a storm to do a how to guide on wheelies .
I know I'd have a copy :-)

[bazza696]

does the storm have any problems with oil starvation if you perform a stunt wheelie that's what I call them, rather than a over exuberant throttle wheelie.

Cool. I might do it again. Apparently they have a stand up wheelie course too. hmm
