serious 12 question (different)
so im out practicing learning 12's and here is the problem, i can get it up but after like 5 ft the bike wants to wobble right to left really bad, i tried letting a little more air out thinking there was to much and it didnt work, it still wants to fall to the left or right, if i counter balance it, it wants to sway really bad any advice?

What are tire pressure you running. I run barely 10 lbs, and it stopped wobbling. Also, you got to watch your throttle, start chopping it and you'll do it everytime. Just work on being easy with the throttle. It's hard but try not to move your throttle, and just easy on with the brake when your back there. Get it on the SNAP! or pu

i'd say work on your position. put equal weight on the pegs and if it starts to sway stiffen up so your body doesn't chase the weaving bike and make it worse. i had the same problem when i started and it just sorta worked itself out.

im running 18lbs of pressure, anything lower and i cant ride it out to the street i play on...
also, i tried being as smooth as possible, but i have to hammer it and dump the clutch and it either comes up way to fast and i have to aply to much brake, or it dosent get up high enough, i tried sitting so when its up my *** is inbetween the rear cowl and the seat (where they meet) so i can almost just sit on the front on the cowl, when i try it standing on my left rear peg, it really wobbles....but any ways
so you guys think i need to drop my tire pressure more?

I ran 15-17 when learning. Try sitting how u would do a normal sit down wheelie (usually forward..more near the tank). Sitting back far you have to be smoother on the gas/brake...to me anyway. When you are sitting look at the triple clamp nut at all time...this will help keep ur body centered till u get them down. my .02

i run 18lbs now...i was running lower but i bumped it up and it works great.
your problem sounds like you need practice. i rock stand ups all day long, i wobble on my sitdowns. just need practice man, you'll get there, same thing when you start working foot in bar, it's wobbly as hell.
also, turn your idle up and don't use the throttle....keep that hand off hte throttle because if you aren't smooth on the throttle that causes side to side wobble.

almost done with my bar, got the sides made and cut to length, got the back cut and ready to be welded on, got my plastics trimmed up nice and smooth and reinstalled, and last but not least got my scrape bar shaped and cut and threaded, now all i need is a damn welder!!!!!
oh and i got my angle by lifting the front end with a pully on my cellieng and a cain on my tripple tree!!!!!!!!!!!
