Actually I scared when bike go up like 80-90 degree angle and one of big problem with me is not tap the brake I don't know how can I solve it and this is only reason I think I'm too scared while bike go up and my mind blowing.... Give me any tips
GET IT!!! I always used the "tilted chair" analogy when trying to explain it - makes the most sense for me!
It's really cool seeing how much better these guides get each time, you guys are killing it love seeing it get higher quality each upload.
Wheelies are all about practicing and getting over the fear of falling. Helps to get to know the bike really well and commuting to it all the way. Gets easier and easier. The butterfly feeling is a fear thing that wears off after you get comfortable with the bike.
Committing, sorry
Awesome point
I have never heard anyone mention the engine sound, but that is exactly what I was going off of when learning the balance point on my harley. That is going to help alot of people. Keep up the killer content!
Wheelieing a harley? lol
@@derron8238 never heard of it or something?
Thanks! Glad we can help people 🔥
I have been riding wheelies since I was like 7 years old, came across this video and had to watch it. They explain it so well.
Very well thought out. Never really came across a video that made it so much more understanding! Great job guys!
Awesome!
If ya alway's chasin your wheelies your not hittin balance point!!! Great video love the content guy's 💯
I've wheelied only a few times with power wheelieing in first and second gear. Tried clutch ups but can't do those. Tried doing them so I don't have to have a lot of room for wheelies. But I only managed to get the front a few inches off the ground.
Tried revving at different RPMs, even up to 7 last night, but it just launches me forward faster.
Good at handling turns, deep lean angles, and moto gymkhana stuff. Wheelies, not good at all.
Always amazed at the videos that I've seen where people just crack the throttle a little bit and front just pops up.
Anytime somebody on the sidewalks ask me to wheelie, I can only pretend like they're saying hi and wave back.
Thank you guys for making this vid and all the others too 🙏. I credit you guys with helping me learn to wheelie and I always come back to this video for a refresher. It’s taken a lot of time but I can get to balance point and beyond and have only looped once going like 2mph dragging a foot. I just got done riding and was dropping back really really deep and coasting super far too. It’s the coolest feeling ever 😎🔥💪. I’ll be Scraping in the near future I’m sure 👍
That sensation of falling backwards makes me panic & I forget to tap my rear brake. Then I fall over backwards.
👍 this stuff why I started watching. Learning and being inspired correctly from the legends that do it right. Keeping it with the people. Real. ❤️✌️ much love
Great explanation. I heard you guys mention hit the brake many times, but since this video is meant for noobs, it may be good to specify REAR brake. I know it's like Duh, but it may help somebody
Hey there, I was riding my muscle cruiser in Sonoma County when I saw a pack of Honda Groms ahead of me. I caught up to them and rode with them, but I could tell they weren't happy with my tag along. Anyway, those Groms are 125cc's and I could BARELY keep up with them. They were going a good 70mph on back roads and then doing wheelies at 50mph. It was THE coolest thing I've seen locally.
best vid on wheelies on the platform
It's my first vid on balance point ,for your very good instructions i dont need to watch other vid..thank you keep it up you explain very well
Can't wait to get back to the lot tomorrow.. thanks guys
Of course thank you!
Appreciated all the information and thank you so much for your time both of you 💯👍
Thank you for the support!
Amazing wheelies and clear explanations, you guys did a 10/10 job. I'll sub.
I know how to wheelie and this is the best how to I've ever seen. Would've helped so much when I was learning a few years back.
You guys work so well together
Thanks guys, im glad you got the klx 110l's so you can do videos on those!
Great video guys! I already know how to wheelie but I always just watch your videos anyways 🤣
Thanks!!!
Quality teaching material.
Perfect Video for where I'm at , Working on Balance Point !! Thank You Both ! And Utube ! Arizona
Waiting for you guys to get a moded Surron or Stock E Ride Pro SS and start doing some work on those wheelie anywhere bikes! 💪
biggest take a way I got from this which is important to learn is to tap the rear brake and not drag it all the time like a caveman. thanks yall for helping me level up
Awesome!
Balance point gyatt
This is a good way to explain the wheelie balance point. A good video as always guys!
This is the best how to wheelie video ever
Hi guys, I am like soe. I found though street racing bikes, skating grind rails and scoring touchdowns that I wish all the best
Thanks for the all the video’s they really do help
Awesome how to vid great job Team Level Up🚀🚀🚀🚀
Come out to springfield mass!!!! I promise you guys will have a blast!!!! You two are the shit much love!!
wheeling was my childhood dream. Rode a CBR 250 & a VT 250, never managed to do it.
2:30 dude, i couldnt even balance the bike STANDING STILL like you do. Jesus.
what I heard and see now , reference to be close for balance point is when your forks are horizontal to the road.
I don't remember that tattoo definitely awesome i watched you guys maybe a year ago but i burnt my leg pretty good so i was down a minute now i am trying again lmao you guys give a lot of good tips i use them in my practices now thanks and little bikes are definitely hard to get up i have a KLX 140L
Nice vid! I need this now, I can chase wheelies out but just need courage to drop back with extra gas
same here
Man learning balance point from gillie eyelash isn’t something i thought would happen
Good teaching skills. Thanks for great tutorials!
You guys are beautiful 💖 .... great video always. .. quality instructions. .. back brake back brake back brake learn it lock it in ... good luck to all ... I'm learning and loving the journey 💖
Well explained great video 👍🏻
0:37...the bounce 😍😍
Engine brake is the sound she is talking about. that’s when the motor of the bike is slowing u down wen u let off the throttle and do not have clutch pulled in.
Great video, it more scary finding balance point if you have an expensive bike !!
Can you you Please do a scraped tutorial
BEST VIDEO OUT THERE
we need new content you both awesome
Incoming! 2024 is the year of new content!🔥🔥
You guys have the best videos!
Great video, clear explanation, good filming. Nice work!
Great vids! Keep'm coming! Quick question on wheelies ... I apologize if you've explained this in another video.
Can you explain if you have a tight hand grip or really relaxed? How tight is tight? How about your arms? Bent but tight and stiff or?? I don't ever see / hear anyone explain this in any detail! Thanks!
I try and keep people as relaxed as possible but do not have a super loose grip! Relax you arms and elbows flow with the bike. Keep a firm grip on the grips
THANK YOU! this was actually super informative!
Outstanding- thank you both so much for sharing this. Again 👌💪
Caught balance point for first time today 💪💪
Well that changes everything. I thought once you hit balance point. You hold and lock in until you put the wheel back down. You're really basically bouncing off it the whole time. Like dribbling a basketball if balance point was the ground..... Great job explaining. We'll see how long it takes for me get it right..... lol. My clutch frictions are on their way out again too....smh. I burnt them out adjusting to the trigger clutch lever.🤦 It's still ok for now tho
I can feel the suspension relax just before I hit balance point kinda like when you get off the bike it floats up..
@@22YZ450FX can't wait to get there. I've been trying to find it without leaning back far enough at all. I haven't done anything except chase them out yet. And loop once. 12 o'clock bar saved my tail end.
@@kambo6581 Sounds wild! I always wanted to lean forward so I mentally pushed the bars forward and got there.
@@22YZ450FX honestly the loop wasn't even from an intention wheelie. I was doing a burnout and I let off the break a little too much trying to doughnut. The bike kicked right up and scraped the end of the wheelie bar. My hand was off the clutch, so it kept pulling forward. And I couldn't get my hand over it again because the bike was all the way up. I would have had to let go of the grip to get my hand out from under the lever and press it back down. It was a total shit show. I had to pull it to the side and drop it to avoid it ghost riding into a bush in front of a store. It hit the ground and the right side of the handle bars got bent a little. Now I have protaper bars with the support rod in the middle and a trigger clutch. So it won't ever happen like that again.
@@kambo6581 Woah! Glad it didn't go fully wrong! That's cool I like how the bars look I bet they can throw a lot of sparks when you drag em!
Hi thanks for the useful information.can you explain the reason of RPM’s dropping noise once you reach the balance point ?!
Thanks again.
The engine slows down because you either let off the gas or hit the brake to slow it before you loop out. So the rpm drops.
It makes a lot of sense, thanks for your help.
Check out this cool motorcycle

Great tips and advice 👌 yous are both awesome
Does airing down the rear tire pressure help? If so what PSI range is recommended?
Thanks for this video. Motivational & informational. Newbie.
Yes, Please do i let go the throttle and wait for motorcycle to come back and hit the brake if it wont come back or i have some steady input on throttle and keep taping the brake pass the balance point. I guess i know what to do with break but im not sure what to do with throttle if u can explain like the whole process with all the Throttle and break from before during and after the balance point. Like the moment before tipping it over obviously u hit throttle but then what ? HELP
That’s the missing link you are right 😊😁
Thanks! Now i van finally keep a wheelie :)
great video guys
Level 10 instructor with a level 10 bootie .
Guys, can you make a video explaining how to work on the side to side balance? I can do good wheelies every once in a while, but in like 8 out of 10 times the bike will want to fall to either side and I have to bring it back down. Thanks!
Needed this for sure!
Awesome thanks guys!
Very helpful. Thanks.
Also sitting further back on the seat definitely helps imo
damn the sound on that grom is crazy haha
Awesome video!!!
Fineist, but there are S-tier Quake 2, Powerslave Exhumed, TUROK 1-2 etc
Best place to practice wheelies and to prepare for that, “oh...crap!” feeling is on the toilet. You will quickly understand brake fade when you have no desk to keep you from falling back.
good video. it's my first days that i pass balance point and it feels really good up there but still scary for me)
Sweet thumbnail ✌
Thanks🔥
Following all your vids, I’m in the point of chasing the wheelie, but question that I have is how do I balance the wheelie from left to right?
You will fall if you try to run before you can walk. Practice the balance point and when you master it you’ll be ready for that. Is just a matter of shifting your weight around from the balance point.
Keep your body centered. Keep your eyes ahead. Use your hips and shoulders to counter. The slower you go the more wobbly it’ll get. If you ride the brake and use gas at same time you will also wobble alot!
Great
So when it starts to fall backwards …. Use the foot break ………
( starts doubting )
Very well explained
Been riding my whole life, can power wheelie comfortably.. and I can balance point the crap out of a wheelchair. Never could get to BP on a bike and be comfortable. How does the bp feeling compare on a bike to a wheelchair if you have ever wheelied one?
How do you control the side to side movement?
Eyes ahead of the bike look where you want to go. Hips and shoulders counter yourself
Nice video
I've got a really touchy throttle, I can get it up and almost to balance point, but I'm not perfect with my throttle yet. I can wheelie all day on four wheels and thumb throttle, but that experience doesn't transfer to well to two wheels and a twist throttle for me anyway.
Cool vid 😎
Can we get a video on steering a sit down. Steering stand ups is easy but I am having a hard time steering sit downs on everything but my supermoto. There is something I am sub consciously doing on that bike that just isn't translating to the bigger bikes and a video covering the basics of bobing and weaving would help with isolating things to focus on. Sometimes I feel like I can have my whole body off to one side and the bigger bikes just want to go the opposite way.
yooo wsup guys, I would like to see a tuto showing how to do some footwork while doing circle wheelie, from stagger to double peg, or standing to ralph loui and things like that. take care guys.
Thanks soo much for the video
I was distracted through out the video….fellas u understand
thank you for the info !!!
What kind of modification should I do for my zx6r before I try to learn this
where can I go to get a pair of those shinguards dude is wearing in the video..
thanks
awesome guys
I’m guess y’all would recommend the grom as a perfect bike to learn to wheelie on
I am doing the stand up wheelie, i press down the pegs,most of the times in the air, I open up the throutel, and then quickly press the clutch, what can I do to avoid it?
One handnders nexxtttt!
Yes!!!
Are the RPM'S dropping at balance point because hes letting off the throttle and coasting?
Love it
At 2:30 I have a question. I have a DRZ400 and it seems like very time I let off the throttle that the engine brake brings the front down. Do I need to use a little clutch action or something? I have to stay in the throttle or it comes down automatically no matter what position I am in the wheelie.
Good times
When you hit the balance point do your hand automatically just roll off?
Is there anyway you guys would teach me? I can come to you! I just got a grom & yes I’m trying but just feel like we’d professional help!
