quick question on wheelies

im not new to wheelies at all im rockin 12's without scrapin like 1-2 inches from bar and ridin em out for a while , my question is ive been workin on long *** wheelies i can get up into 4th but i really dont gain too much speed cuz im allways at the BP. before i shift i take it past the BP and shift, then when it hits the next gear im at the BP again, my question is how the hell do you gain speed to go faster? all i know is that if your chasing the BP then you will gain speed....... i was tryin it out today and id let it come down a little past the BP but it would almost allways just drop down??????? :YEAH

Hazen is a decent person
Straighten out your legs and arms, let the bike go a little under BP. You will have to give it throttle to hold the wheelie. This will make you accelerate. when you get to the speed you want, lean way back untill you get back to bp. Hold it there and start rockin the combos. Worked for me.
