3:44 You're the first person I've heard talk about that and it completely changed my view on body position lol, I'm definitely trying that tomorrow haha. Earlier today i had one where i accidentally leaned forward and it felt great but i thought it was wrong so i went back to leaning back but now i know what to do
Weasel I ran up on your xr650 video an then the klr video. And ty for your vids. You helped me make up my mind on the kind of bike I want. I was first thinking of the xl650 but other vids kind of pushed me away from t thinking I'd want the crf450 but finding your vids helped me. Cause for one I live in oceana wv. I knew you was close to me cause of the mountains you ride on. Looks identical to were I ride. We're close to the same weight u and I'm 148 right now. I was also afraid of the weight of the 650. But I seen your videos and knew right of. That xr650 was my bike. I've rode bikes for 28 yrs and I've not rode any in the last 15 yrs. I am out of shape. And riding I think will get me back in shape. This is my wife's profile. But man if you ever ride my way. Let me know. I'll join u. Godbless brother ride hard but be safe.
I've just started working on dirtbikes and getting really deep in the weeds with it, I understood everything you've just explained. I'm excited to get my 450, I'm not nervous to learn it, so I'm looking forward to the fun
I’m 12 and 5’7 and I wheelie my full size 250 and 450 and I still wheelie in 2 to third and then sometimes I get to 4th sometimes but my bikes are custom so there really torque so I can wheelie mostly without clutch so that helps
I can pop all the 250/450 bikes up without the clutch too but it’s a lot harder to get to balance point fast enough without chasing the wheelie. Usually bikes with a lot more torque are way harder to ride wheelies on because you can’t cruise at the balance point because you’ll always be chopping the throttle. Power wheeling is easy to do on 250/450 bikes because that all have motocross gearing, add an exhaust and it has extra torque so it’s almost impossible to not wheelie. Gotta learn to control it rather than just letting the bike do the work
@@WheelieWeasel I agree. I want a old yz250 or 450 like a old 90’s but with probably some new 2022 or 2023 ish plastics so it still has the modern look with the old school guts
@@Minty250dy that’s an absolutely insane deal. I’d be on edge to make sure it’s not blown all to heck or a scam because that’s a $4,500 bike minimum lol
So I got a 2015 250sx and I can ride a wheeler for like 50 yards but not get to the balance point.I was wondering if you had any tips on how to get to the balance point and hold it there.
Gotta give it some more throttle and go back further to get back to balance point fast. The key is to get there fast so you can let off the throttle faster. The more you’re on the throttle the more you’ll have to shift or let it down.
When I was like 7 and I had a ktm 65 I literally only ever used the clutch to pull off, I never pulled in the clutch to shift and I never had issues, didn't shift with a clutch until my uncle noticed and corrected me, at that point I was like 10 and on a yz 85, it won't do any damage trust me.
You're absolutely right, I'm new to the sport and bought a brand new 2021 250fx, at first I was using the clutch to shift, but after watching videos where people say is ok to shift without using it, I've been doing it all the time for almost 4 years, bike has over 250 hours and never had any issues with tye transmission.@WheelieWeasel
I’d have to get a set of fat bars and fat bar clamps so I’d have to switch the whole bar setup but it would look sick. I’ve been thinking about getting a set of the renthall fat bars
So I'm not on this level yet I just came across this video but u shift without using the clutch? I've never heard of they even if just for wheelies. So what's the point of the clutch then other than not stalling when stopped? Genuine question bc this just confuses me thx
You don’t exactly need the clutch to shift it all situations. Shifting without the clutch is called speed shifting, you do it by getting the engine to a certain rpm range so that the gear will shift smoothly without the clutch. It takes a little time to get used to but it helps in things like wheelies or racing. When you race if you take the time to pull in the clutch with each shift you’ll be slower than Someone banging gears and speed shifting. The only reason you need to do it on wheelies is when you pull in that clutch the front end will drop fast if you can’t shift fast enough, when you speed shift the front end doesn’t have time to drop so it’s easier to keep it up.
@@fasterthunder8308 a lot of people say it don’t and some say it will. I’ve had a lot of bikes over the years and I’ve never had a bike mess up over it. As long as you ain’t shoving it into gear it’ll be okay. It should shift just as smooth as it would when pulling in the clutch. A step by step way is speed up like normal, get the RPM to the shift range (higher rpm), let off the gas and at the same time shift then get back on the gas. Should just go right into the gear no problem
@@WheelieWeaselI appreciate u replying to my questions when this video is a month old. U definitely earned a sub man. U might be able to tell but I'm new to dirt bikes and I'm not very mechanically inclined I never owned anything as a kid due to my single mom not having the money. But now that I'm old enough to have a good paying job I can buy my own toys lol. But if u did more how tos for beginners like me id definitely be watching more of u and wouldn't doubt u get some more subs keep up the good work man.
Thabks for making this, I have only been riding two years, and just got onto a 250. Im decent at mountainbike wheelies, but I am thinking of buying a surron to get practice with.
@SAGception07 I had a crf100 a while back and I could ride some insane wheelies on it. Pop it up in like 3rd but you’d dang near have to bang it off the limiter from a clutch dump lol
Any tips on keeping my feet in the pegs? Get past the balance point and I throw my feet off backwards. I can ride wheelies at 70mph but can’t stay “behind “the balance point to like slow down……
It’s all reflex’s brotha! The best way I’ve found out how to is find a nice area where you aren’t gonna get hurt if/when you fall and pop it up in 1st and 2nd gear and focus on going as slow as possible. Another way is to find a nice little slop uphill. start off in 1st gear and do clutch ups from a dead stop with your left foot off the peg and on the ground while your right foot is on the peg to cover the brake. Focus on going as far back as possible without looping then tap the brake when you get to that loop point. Keep doing this until your completely comfortable with being far back then start doing it with both feet on the pegs. Keep in mind you wanna start off from a dead stop and pop it up almost like an enduro rider does a 180 to turn around when in a tight spot. Slow wheelies are hard in my opinion but they’re the best way to learn to keep your feet on the pegs and covering the brake.
best thing to try and do is when you drop back to balance point try to look through the gap under your arm on either side and you should be able to see
Personally if you’ve never ridden before the 150rb will be a lot of power to grow into regardless of how small it looks. A lot of grown dudes ride them because they’re so powerful for their size. They’re absolutely awesome! Best beginner bike though, I’m not too sure. If I was put on one right away before I learned to rid I’d gotten hurt lol but it would definitely be enough to grow into and keep!
I like the faster wheelies in 3rd to 5th they make for better content when in the woods. When I’m on a road that’s not sloped or slanted I drop back a lil and do one handers and stuff
i have a question so i am 14 years old and i have a 2011 crf250r and i can get to the balance point but i cant shift gears bc i have to pull the clutch in but will it hurt anything if i don't pull the clutch injh
It wont hurt a thing if you do it right. Practice shifting up without the clutch while normally riding so you can get the feel for it. If you have to force it hard into gear it's not at the right RPM. It should just slip into gear
I've had my 250cc a year and I still haven't wheelied yet on purpose I've wheeled by accident popping the clutch in second on a turn. But I want to wheelie on call.
I got another video that could teach ya the basics. I done it on a klx 140 but the tips work just the same on a 250 just have to be more careful. Basically just learn how to pop the clutch without dumping it, how to control the brake and how to control the throttle
@@WheelieWeasel I'm willing to practice, I'm waiting on the weather to break and stay warm with no rain. I popped it up by accident after I stalled on a corner and I popped the clutch in second gear, it raised up about a foot and that's when I knew that I could do it on a 250cc I bought off of Amazon. It came with 2 miles on it and now I've got 1600 miles on it, and still no wheelies. But I'm going to wheelie this summer. Do I need to smoke that back tire first for more traction?
@@JUSTINIAN48 as long as you’re willing to put In the time you’ll get it figured out! Also traction wouldn’t be an issue so you wouldn’t need to spin the tire or anything. Even on a 450 you don’t have to worry about it all that much. It’s more or less just learning the right amount of throttle. Too much and you can flip or spin and too little and it won’t do anything lol
All in throttle control, brake control and seating position. It could be anything causing your balance to be off. Make sure you’re centered on the seat and not being too hard on the throttle or brakes but not being too easy at the same time
That’s entirely up you you. I like the yz because they’re mellow and fast, the Kx is mellow, the RMZ is just soft, Crf is aggressive and fast but not the comfiest, KTM and Husqvarna are fast and comfy but can be stiff if you want em
@@dema669 that’s good you learned it! Not bashing your technique or anything man! Just saying that learning the fundamentals would make it easier for people. Like say if it took you 1 year to learn to drop back if you knew what to practice first you’d done it in 6 months Vs the 1 year if that makes any sense
the drz400 would be perfect to learn on. The smaller the bike the more twitchy it is so it’ll take more input to keep it at the balance point. The bigger the bike the less input you have to use to keep it at balance point. However a lighter, smaller bike would be easier to get up
there's no need to clutchless shift, if one day you mess up a clutchless shift on a wheelie I bet you would have preffered to learn to change gears with clutch on a wheelie, its not hard and way preferable
anyone who actually knows how to wheelie clutchless shifts, Watch any video. Also that’s your opinion and completely subjective. It’s preferable by you but is it easier, no. Also miss shifting without the clutch does nothing but slip back into the gear you was trying to shift out of. Also shifting with a clutch is not hard but for a beginner it’s not easy. On a bike with less power the second you pull in the clutch the front tire drops hard unless you shift really fast. For example a 150 or a 230 which is what a lot of my viewers ride. They would not be able to shift using a clutch unless they’ve already learned how to go way far back almost passed balance point to shift.
@@WheelieWeaselso you saying I cant wheelie? I seem to wheelie better than you since you cant even seem to hit balance point and stay in the same gear, and I only or mostly clutch shift during my wheelies, what now? also if you mess up a clutchless shift you can and will probably fuck up your transmission, no need for that, also if you're not hitting balance point then why are you shifting gears? you're only gaining more speed and endangering yourself since you clearly cant control your bike if you cant hit balance point... I'll just say this, yes you can clutchless shift, no you should not learn to wheelie that way, it incentivises you to always try to catch the wheelie instead of controling it by going to the balance point and mastering the brake. also this comes from a guy who's only started wheeling in december last year, when I got my bike, clearly my strategy seems better...
I literally said that clutchless shifts are easier than speed shifts that’s why beginners should do it and also that’s why all these stunt riders don’t use a clutch. Also I’ve miss shift hundred of times on hundreds of different bikes and never had issue. If your transmission messes up from a few miss shifts it was bound to blow. Also I never said you couldn’t wheelies lmao if I was saying you couldn’t wheelie I’d outright say it. Also go watch my 150r videos if you think I can’t drop back, coast, do one handers, downshift and slow down on a wheelie and all of the above lol. I 110% can. The reason I don’t do it in my newer videos is all my newer videos I’m only trying to get high resolution footage and good angles. If I was to drop back and stay in one gear past balance point on the brake the viewers would only be able to see the seat and that’s it lol. Who wants to tune into a video where all you see is a seat and barely any road, no one. In all my videos I’m on balance point lol the only reason I’m shifting is because I want to gain speed and ride a faster wheelie, it looks better on camera. Slow wheelies past balance point on a chin cam look like crap. Also this isn’t a stunting channel lol. I literally just get bikes, ride in the woods, ride wheelies, do top speed runs then trade it and do it all over again. Find me proof where I claim to be the best, fastest or greatest dirt bike rider ever lol. I’m only here to provide entertainment and laughs not coach people into becoming SBFCs lol. (Street bike freestyle champions)
@@WheelieWeaselI said that because you said "anyone that actually knows how to wheelie clutchless shifts", not true, the rest, I understand, my point is: teaching people to clutchless whelie will just make them power wheelie and always try to catch it, if you can't clutch shift in a wheelie, you should not be clutchless shifting in a wheelie, just shows you don't have enough control over the bike, not saying "you" exactly, also whenever I just shift up in my wheelies liek you did in the video (low rpms) I tend to lose speed and not gain it but whatever might just be me, anyways, just to reiterate my point, dont learn to shift without the clutch on wheelies, there is a minimal but still real possibility you might blow your transmission, and learning to do it wont help you in the long run. to end my rant, I don't like to teach people shortcuts, even more shortcuts that dont actually help, if they want to learn wheelies, teach them to find balance point, to brake and to drop back, way safer, way cooler to experience and watch and will save some people from wrecking their bike because they were trying to catch a wheelie at 60mph+

Good bike to learn on. Just remember, buy a bike you will grow into, not grow out of as soon as you learn to ride.
Personally if you’ve never ridden before the 150rb will be a lot of power to grow into regardless of how small it looks. A lot of grown dudes ride them because they’re so powerful for their size. They’re absolutely awesome! Best beginner bike though, I’m not too sure.

All in throttle control, brake control and seating position. It could be anything causing your balance to be off. Make sure you’re centered on the seat and not being too hard on the throttle or brakes but not being too easy at the same time

Good video and explanation 👍
Is it the same way on a Chinese 250
Yup! Just have to use a lil more throttle
idk bro i just drop back clutch and shift and a lil brake tap
Gotta have a good Body position, throttle control and brake control to do all that. That’s why I give these tips lol

the drz400 would be perfect to learn on. The smaller the bike the more twitchy it is so it’ll take more input to keep it at the balance point. The bigger the bike the less input you have to use to keep it at balance point.
However a lighter, smaller bike would be easier to get up
@@WheelieWeasel yeah true that, i can get it up in 4th gear doing about 90km/h but just cant hold for very long
@@WheelieWeasel Just got a 2008 yz450f and it is so easy to wheelie and hold the wheelie, much easier than the drz400
The 65s be getting everybody 24+ years for me 😅
That’s the truth and heck yeah!
nice vid no time wasted
Thank you!
Very good video

The first thing you should do is get a new pair of pants😀
there's no need to clutchless shift, if one day you mess up a clutchless shift on a wheelie I bet you would have preffered to learn to change gears with clutch on a wheelie, its not hard and way preferable
yes, if you never mess up it will be fine, me, I just prefer to use the clutch most of the time
anyone who actually knows how to wheelie clutchless shifts, Watch any video. Also that’s your opinion and completely subjective. It’s preferable by you but is it easier, no. Also miss shifting without the clutch does nothing but slip back into the gear you was trying to shift out of. Also shifting with a clutch is not hard but for a beginner it’s not easy.
On a bike with less power the second you pull in the clutch the front tire drops hard unless you shift really fast. For example a 150 or a 230 which is what a lot of my viewers ride. They would not be able to shift using a clutch unless they’ve already learned how to go way far back almost passed balance point to shift.
@@WheelieWeaselso you saying I cant wheelie? I seem to wheelie better than you since you cant even seem to hit balance point and stay in the same gear, and I only or mostly clutch shift during my wheelies, what now? also if you mess up a clutchless shift you can and will probably fuck up your transmission, no need for that, also if you're not hitting balance point then why are you shifting gears? you're only gaining more speed and endangering yourself since you clearly cant control your bike if you cant hit balance point... I'll just say this, yes you can clutchless shift, no you should not learn to wheelie that way, it incentivises you to always try to catch the wheelie instead of controling it by going to the balance point and mastering the brake. also this comes from a guy who's only started wheeling in december last year, when I got my bike, clearly my strategy seems better...
I literally said that clutchless shifts are easier than speed shifts that’s why beginners should do it and also that’s why all these stunt riders don’t use a clutch. Also I’ve miss shift hundred of times on hundreds of different bikes and never had issue. If your transmission messes up from a few miss shifts it was bound to blow. Also I never said you couldn’t wheelies lmao if I was saying you couldn’t wheelie I’d outright say it.
Also go watch my 150r videos if you think I can’t drop back, coast, do one handers, downshift and slow down on a wheelie and all of the above lol. I 110% can. The reason I don’t do it in my newer videos is all my newer videos I’m only trying to get high resolution footage and good angles. If I was to drop back and stay in one gear past balance point on the brake the viewers would only be able to see the seat and that’s it lol. Who wants to tune into a video where all you see is a seat and barely any road, no one. In all my videos I’m on balance point lol the only reason I’m shifting is because I want to gain speed and ride a faster wheelie, it looks better on camera. Slow wheelies past balance point on a chin cam look like crap. Also this isn’t a stunting channel lol. I literally just get bikes, ride in the woods, ride wheelies, do top speed runs then trade it and do it all over again. Find me proof where I claim to be the best, fastest or greatest dirt bike rider ever lol. I’m only here to provide entertainment and laughs not coach people into becoming SBFCs lol.

@@WheelieWeaselI said that because you said "anyone that actually knows how to wheelie clutchless shifts", not true, the rest, I understand, my point is: teaching people to clutchless whelie will just make them power wheelie and always try to catch it, if you can't clutch shift in a wheelie, you should not be clutchless shifting in a wheelie, just shows you don't have enough control over the bike, not saying "you" exactly, also whenever I just shift up in my wheelies liek you did in the video (low rpms) I tend to lose speed and not gain it but whatever might just be me, anyways, just to reiterate my point, dont learn to shift without the clutch on wheelies, there is a minimal but still real possibility you might blow your transmission, and learning to do it wont help you in the long run. to end my rant, I don't like to teach people shortcuts, even more shortcuts that dont actually help, if they want to learn wheelies, teach them to find balance point, to brake and to drop back, way safer, way cooler to experience and watch and will save some people from wrecking their bike because they were trying to catch a wheelie at 60mph+
Nice 👍🏾
Thank you very much
