Slow wheelies
I Just got a 900RR and I cant ride those low RMP, slow speed wheelies. I am inconsistant poping the bike up and I cant Keep it rollin. Can anyone give me some advice to get that thing up High and Roll it out real slow??

clutch it up good... ( its gonna take lots of practice to be consistent) and once your about 10 o clock.. start easing into the brake and leaning back... hold the throttle steady because chopping it will drop the wheelie.. control the wheelie with the brake...
it takes tons of practice to get this... one of the hardest things ive learned... but just keep at it and youll get it.
the main thing to riding a slow wheelie is knowing how to use the brake and keep it up... u gotta actually go past the balance point to slow it down...

Thanks guys, sounds like its gonna be a challenge. I rode my R6 all summer and learned donuts, decent stoppies, but I could never do the slow-high wheelies on it. I got a buddy who said his XR70 helped him out alot with them. I may have to find one!!! Bye the way, I love this website... everyone I talk to, online and In person who stunts are super-friendly and not elite ********. I cant wait to ride now!:p

Well.. I have AWESOME brake control on my 100. However, I didnt really learn on there till after I learned on the gixxer. I just wish I could ride my gixxer like my XR. I can tear the **** up outta the XR without even trying

These are both VERY slow. I'm talking stalling first gear slow... 5mph MAX

Nags, thats pretty nastya!! I wish my XR100 never got stolen when I was 13! I need a 70. Does anyone who rides a 900rr have lower final drive gearing? Is it a must to make slowees easier? whats the deal?

Go with a 100 instead. A 70 is like.. "I'm not pimp enough to rock a fiddy, but I couldn't afford the 100"

Dude that is nice
Who else is doing that on the 100's?
I agree that 100's are a great learning tool. It seems I can translate more of what I learn from the 100 to a big bike. I put a scrape bar on my '01 but I have no clue how to put pics on here. HELP
