Re: New Member needs some help
An R1 will come up in just about any gear. My bike has about 60% of the power your R1 has and I only use about 60% of it to get the fromnt up. Get a dirtbike and practice. Read the WHEELIE STICKY (many times, pay attention). Be careful that thing is a beast.
How fast are you going?
what gear are you in?
Whats your experience level?
give us more info/ specific questions and youll get better answers

I read the how to on this site and on the R1 forum and I basically tried to do a wheelie while sitting towards the back of the bike. I tried riding in first gear until 10,000 rpm and then open it all up (it just raced forward) I tried double clutching and it LEAPED forward. Maybe I'm too heavy or maybe I am instinctically trying to keep it down as I would during fast road ridding.
The feeling I have is that it is too long and the balance is really low and forward. This is a great handling bike but maybe not made for wheelies.
Thanks for your help.

You guys obviously have a serious attitude issue. Suffice to say that I will certainly mop the floor with your sorry A**es on track or on open roads, take my word for it. The point of someone asking a question is getting some serious answer and not a couple of teen age ******* trying to impress with obnoxious comments.

LOL I love when people get mad...Don't take them serious man, it's kind of like a ritual here to rip on someone. No fence but if you can't take a few jokes then how will you take the hit once your bike trows you off? R1 are very easy to pick up by the way.

Re: New Member needs some help
You guys obviously have serious skills. Suffice to say that I am the greatest R1 rider to ever live but I don't have enough throttle or clutch control to ride a god damn wheelie , take my word for it. The point of someone asking a question is getting a serious answer and I understand that I didn't impress you with my obnoxious comments.

Re: New Member needs some help
Im riding an 08 R1 and will tell you it is easy as hell to get up. Im slipping the clutch but going staggerd in 2nd if you bounce you can do it a 35 and up. It has some low end lag but if you bounce it, it will come up. The only problem is balance point on this bike is insane. I am allways speeding up on matter what but im a sissy and wont take it all the way back. BTW Im running stock gearing and it clutches up better than my old r6 with -1 +2.
Also look into a f4I throttle tube and practice. And if your slipping the clutch and all it does is lung your timing is off.

Re: New Member needs some help
I was trying to avoid starting with stand up wheelies as I find I have less control on the bike. i use to get the 03 up sitting down but I guess maybe I have to take that route with the 07.
