-1 in the front typically equals +2 in the rear. The effect is quicker acceleration, reduced top end. Yes, you will wheelie easier.

I have -1 +2 and it makes a world of difference...I have a boat load of power but my fuel effiency has gone down..tit for tat. Also get a speedo healer if you do that cuz on most bikes it will change the speedo.

-1F = +3R

I always suggest -1F+2R Nice difference.
