Damn good riding guys.
Makes me feel like a hack.
I'm hung up on how to get it up to balance hight & not be going twenty mph & headed for a 100 with a quickness. I can stretch 2nd & 3rd pretty good but I have to have that wind to lean it on. I can take off from a stop & ride it on through the gears but that first one wonders till it's up to about 30. Seems like the slower it's going the more you have to balance the side to side too.

Back in the day. I had a V65 magna that could change lanes like nobody's business. I figured it was from the taller sidewall crushing. The tire pressure makes sence.
Guess I don't need the answer to the second question. That way I can still blame it on the fact that I think I"m not fast enough to keep up with it once it goes over. It's all good.

tire pressure is some what important. low speed wheelies,.....as in 0-8mph are most effected by air pressure. 15mph and up arent really affected except for the ability to steer a wheelie. low pressure makes steering a wheelie more difficult at speed. slow wheelies at the balance point start out by going as slow as possible almost a dead stop just enough speed to keep your balance with both feet on the pegs. you half to clutch tthe bike up past the balance point and then get on the back break, remember this is all done with the idle turned up around 3000 to 3500 rpm. get off the gas and let the idle catch the bike and use the brake to balance the front to back movement. its hard, im not going to lie, its also hard to explain how to do it with out being able to show you. i learned to do it with no one helping me so i know you can to. good luck and be carefull. i run 18psi in my rear tire all the time, slow or hiway wheelies.

good luck and be carefull,,
