Practise on uphills that way you will have a little engine breaking, when you get good then start doing it on the flat with your back brake to slow you.

Oh and do it on grass not tarmac, when I had my yz 85 I took the skin off most of my right arm by wheelying in 4th along our tarmac lane and hitting the powerband.

Are you shifting gears while on the back wheel?

Thats the closest call I've ever seen for a wheelie. It looked like his front wheel stepped out a little too. How the hell did he keep that together?

Shanes the expert on expensive superbike wheelies though... :D
