Greetings,

I own a 2007 R1 and I am having trouble getting the front wheel up. Could you direct me to a "How to" thread?

Is it true that the 07 R1 is difficult to wheelie on standard gearing?

Thanks,

Michel

I never hate but holy ****.

 

here is the direct link to the how to wheelie https://www.stuntlife.com/forums/443...ing-basic.html

 

I'm impressed, that's one hell of an active forum! Thanks for the link.

 

they won't wheelie.You should trade it in on a Katana

 

Those are VERY Hard to wheelie, ill tell you what ill trade you one of my f4i that wheelie very easy for your r1

 

Well I actually owned a 1984 GSX1150 same engine as the Katana!

 

Well Ill try very hard and if I fail I will take you on your offer.

really i didnt know r1z are hard to wheelie.. my buddy as a r1 and he does highchairs on the thing

 

I think yamaha just upgraded the bikes. The new clutches and what not. I also have a buddy that has an r1 that is easy to wheelie that thing. Haven't tried an 07. No one will let me touch theirs. hah

 

where is my tylenol?

 

the 02-03's are the easiest to wheelie...and every year since they have gotten harder...yamy designed their R1s for the track more and more since....the power is there but the weight is way forward making the balance point very high....

check out www.r1-forum.com for other R1 related stuff...

 

everyone is special in there own way and baby jesus loves you all

 

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

 

liter bikes don't have the power to whoolie

 

werd... i feel your pain man
