After Careful experimentation...including a hypothysis and a Conclusion...the front tire starts to come off the ground at 9-10 ish, haha. I dont run my bike super hard or anything, I wouldnt even say hard yet so I dont know...I feel bad for the bike reving this much...or is that ok for it...as long as its not held there for lengthy periods of time. I keep trying to pull up like on my bike(pedal LoL) I should definitly stay away from that or?
Wanting to test it out on one wheel.
Although not a professional to say the least, haha, I was wondering what advice one could give me in trying to do a small catwalk(wheelie) or whatever its called these days. I have tried a few and seem to be able to a few deecent but short ones. I know its probably a dumb question, and most people will say im an idiot for trying it...well the rents do anyway, but yeah, any tips or ways to go about it, sitting down? standing up? Pulling up? leaning back? etc. Thanks! Dont scorn me for this question!!!

The rear brake is your friend! I've seen Twisty come down hard using the rear brake cause he almost looped his GSXR 1K on the highway.... it added for some amusement!
This is why it is important to work ont the Throttle / brake alternating, it gives you the finesse needed so you dont do front end slams in a bit of a panic. You shouldnt have to tear your bike up to learn a wheelie. Finesse is your friend.Gas Man said:The rear brake is your friend!

work on tecnique while it is flat on the ground and put it to use when it is up.
You should be able to pull it up earlier than that.
Have you tried the steady slow roll and bluerp the throttle or roll on hard off and harder back on the gas.
