Paging the wheelie experts.

I'm looking for some input from those of you who are profficient at
monowheeling.

My current method only works in 1st gear and results in a hard down when I
reach the rev limiter - not good.

I can 'get it up' (ok ok that's enough!) without any difficulty in 1st just
by an 'off-on' throttle action at about 6000 revs. What's the best way to
keep it up in second/ third? If I pull the clutch to snick 2nd, the front
will surely crash down, yet it's impossible to "clutchlessly" hook up a gear
without partially shutting the throttle which again would put the front down
(wouldn't it?).

Anyone?

TIA

 

Make sure the bike is past the vertical before changing gear, that
should sort it.

 

Thanks Daz. Usually when I go beyond the vertical, I think I may flip over
and tend to ease off a bit on the throttle. I guess what I *should* do at
that point is clutch in & change up a cog then re-nail the throttle. Right
then, I'm sorted.

 

Righty ho, will do. I'll probly video it too.

 

Good idea.
