Leaning?
I just got my 05 gixxer this year but have been riding motocross my whole life. I can wheelie for days if i only knew how to lean with my bike...if i clutch it up ill sit down but if i power wheelie sometimes ill stand and then sit or sometimes i just stay standing. But i have to stop after a lil because my bike starts to lean to much and i cant center it. How do i center my bike so i dont lean to the right or left???

Re: Leaning?
ok you got me. here ill break **** down for you seein as you might not have a brain of your own to think with. first place you went wrong is comming on a stunt site saying that you power wheelie. not one single accomplished stuntrider power wheelies, if you are doing power wheelies you are a squid bottom line. good thing about being a squid is its more of a choice than a permanent affliction so there is hope for you. 2nd place you went wrong was asking prob one of the dumbest questions ive seen on here... "how do i lean" idk albert, how does one lean....? heres an exercise you can do all by yourself at home although for a guy like you id recommend wearing a helmet. stand in place with some shoes on a hard surface, lift up one leg, as you start tip one way lean the opposite way, a magic thing happens, you balance. balance is when the force on one side of an object is even with the other side thus remaining in one position. so if youre on a motorcycle doing a wheelie and its leaning to one side, move your body to the other side and lean opposite
now with that being said ill provide you with some knowledge that your average blue bus passenger might not be privy to. its nearly impossible to steer a motorcycle on one wheel when you are not at balance point. actually when i bend my wheelies around corners on the street i ride it behind bp on the brake to get it to turn sharp corners. so the idea is the further back the wheelie the easier you can negotiate turns with the bike on the rear wheel.
so there is your little pillow fluff now go out there and be a number one stunter

Re: Leaning?
also could be that when youre concentrating on leaning left youre pushing very hard on your right peg to do so which conflicts what youre doing know what i mean...

his post says BEYOND BALANCE POINT IT'S EASIER TO TURN IN.... you are NOT at balance point, HENCE, if you lean it does little to nothing to affect the outcome of your power wheelie. read grasshoppa! you are far from numba one stunta!
