How to slow wheelie

  • This is my take on the slow wheelie. I talk about how important I think the initiation of the wheelie is. I believe that clutch control is huge but also the combination of the rear brake and keep the throttle hand light. it can be a long process but if you stick with it and are disciplined you'll be able to feel some improvement faster than you think. The slow wheelie is something I always work on and am still never satisfied because there is always more control to be gained. I hope this can help you and thanks for checking it out!

    You just have to commit and send it, It's better for me to just go for it then to take baby steps. Then I know while im looking at the sky on my back that maybe I won't send it so hard next time. Helps me to gauge it better.

    nice content, 4:49 as the wheel pops up, when you ride slow, are you using the clutch to control the speed or just the gas and rear brake only.?

    It's a lot more rear brake feel in soft shoes. Just don't hit the trails wearing them.

      Instead of popping the clutch instantly try letting it out fast but slipping it a little with some throttle

    The only thing I never understood, especially with slow wheelies, is the clutch. In order to keep your speed slow are you fully releasing the clutch once the front wheel is up, or are you feathering the clutch (but never fully released)?
    As someone who can't wheelie, it seems that fully releasing the clutch would create too much speed for such a slow wheelie?
    Thanks!

    • @splatmoto
      @splatmoto  2 роки тому +1

      These wide ratio transmissions will go pretty slow in first gear. But yes, you have to work the clutch when braking.

      I wished there was a way to video the left hand while in the wheelie. It'd be helpful to see the finesse being used.

    • @splatmoto
      @splatmoto  2 роки тому +2

      Finesse is the word for sure. Understanding the engagement point is key. And building finger strength is helpful because the finger will get pretty tired after a few passes. I’ll do another video with my GoPro on the clutch hand

      I always use the clutch in a wheelie... even in faster wheelies like 4th gear wheelies... I don't like how the play in the chain and the transmission throws me around on balance point. So I use my clutch always to disengage the system to avoid the engine breaking and that chain and stuff playing with me in unpredictable ways... but definitely in a slow wheelie where the engine is at low RPM you must feather the clutch the whole time. The engine is very rough and unpredictable at low RPM and you don't want it to stall and throw you to the ground. So in that case also you'll pull the clutch. But that quick reaction comes with many hours behind the bars..

      You don’t have to. However, if you can it will pop up a little quicker. Plus it’s another level of coordination and control which helps other aspects of riding
