Re: Sprocket ?

I heard that you need a smaller sized engine to go slower. Isn't the minimum speed you can wheelie with a liter bike like 20 mph or something? I guess you can buy a 250 and wheelie slow...? Sprocket size really helps going slow? Have you tried 89 octane? Maybe you're running the 92. That doesn't help you know.

What if you just take off 2 spark plug caps ?

Re: Sprocket ?

Taking off two caps may work. Be sure that you run 89 octane though! You can also bolt on some big and akward plastic boxes to the side of your bike to increase wind resistance. That will help shed some speed.

I was thinking of roping a set of tires to the side of my bike to use as a cage as well as digging out my batman cape to help with wind.

Re: Sprocket ?

don't forget a handbrake. You can't do slow wheelies without a handbrake.

Re: Sprocket ?

I like the tires idea. Let me know how that works. I may take off the added weight of my rear master cylinder and just go with some used Michelins tied to the sides.

or a cage but you can get around that by just having alot of chrome on your bike so it will shine!

Re: Sprocket ?

Oh and don't forget to wheelie in sandles. Sandle souls are extra grippy so your feet won't slip of the pegs. Also shorts and no shirt helps you get a good feel for the speed your going without having to look down at your speedometer. Looking at your speedo in a wheelie is not safe.
