Sprocket setup question
I was just wondering if i was to go 3 up in the rear, would I be able to wheelie in 2nd gear off just throttle? Currently I am -1 in the front and can clutch up 2nd just about a foot or so, but i wanted to go 3 up in the rear. I have a 2001 Zx6r
Thanks

off the throttle like, "power wheelie" or off the throttle like.. "not needing clutch"
hell, even a stock R1 will take some finesse to power wheelie in 2nd (i.e. scoot back ibn seat, yank bars, rip throttle open.. bike slowly comes up). if you were hoping for your bike to just leap in the air with +3.. even with -1 in the front already, i would guess it won't. but, if you mean, will you be able to wheelie with just throttle and some technique.. sure.. just keep working at it, it's all about timing.

my boy has a stock 2000zx6 that I trash all the time, and I can clutch it up in second all day! It is a little tricky, but it does come up completely stock. I think that bike needs 2 down in front and call it a day.
