Lower air pressure in rear tire will help keep you from falling to the side. It will help while your learning.
How bout falling left or right ,do u just lean the other way ?
@@marceltromp1454 it can be a bit of a balancing act, and somewhat different on each bike, but you will most likely find yourself doing certain things subconsciously. turning the handlebars, that can be used as a counterbalancing technique. You just want to consciously remember to straighten the wheel out before it hits the ground again. And I see some people taking a foot off of the peg and sticking their leg out in front of them to counterbalance. And yes, leaning slightly may help as well, but the only way to really know what it is that you need to do is to just keep practicing, and it will eventually become instinctive.
What psi is good , is there a good tyre pump ?
Good to know, thanks!

I've seen so many tutorials that suck at explaining where they'll say to just work on brakes then you can wheelie. This is the best on I've seen thanks
I super appreciate that man! Hope to see you around here more
Sit as far back as you can
This video is very good! Now I know how to practice doing a wheelie. Thank you!
Best wheelie video I've seen yet!
good video. thanks for taking the time. I don't have a bike yet, but may get one in the next 12 months or so. I am after the same model as what you have.
Will give this a try. I watched more then a few of these videos now. Going to use your formula and put the hours in.
bro explains everything so good , keep it up
Excellent video, right to the point and super helpful
Great, no bs tutorial❤
Appreciate it man!
best wheelie vid ive seen
Thanks Brah. I have been trying to wheelie and doing stoppies forever but only getting hurt, I am 57 going on 30😅 I just can't stop. Been riding bikes since the old Harley AMFs. My bones don't bend, they break.
Redbilly. Same age and same story
67 in March
You youngster.
Was pretty good in 84 on a New xr200.
Never did the brake.
Got a new crf300l
Recently.
What a P.I.G. Hog!
It might need red lined to get the wheel up!
Never rode a dirt bike before but I'm looking forward to doing this on the new cr500 I just bought. Glad to know it doesn't take long to learn.
🤣🤣🤣
Very Detail and informative
That was a good video. I bet even i could wheelie after watching it. Might not be a good idea because I'd be wheeling everywhere. Right in front of the man.
Fantastic man!
Awesome video man thanks ill try that!
Best tutorial so far. Now I just gotta get out there.
Definitely good tips I am to the last steps and have been having problems doing it but I will try your way to see if it helps me I get it up but it drops just as fast mid way I can ride maybe 6ft
That was a good explanation 👍
Don’t have a dirtbike… yet… but this makes so much sense. Where was this when I had my rm80 as a kid😂
Great video
Thanks for the video, gonna try those last two steps today 😇
I'd also share that after countless practicing day I came to the point of understanding that fork does't do much in lifting front wheel, it's all about compressing rear suspension and releasing the clutch at the very last moment when the grip is the best and there no more heavy load on wheel that acts kinda like a rear brake. It feels like an ollie on the board when u time it right and front pops very easy.
Another thing I found that using throttle blip technique when u open it and close just before releasing a clutch gives u more precise power, prevents whiskey throttle and more important spins the engine before making any load on the rear wheel means less bogging. I've spent hours and hours getting closer to say I've nailed it somehow 😂
Hope that help someone ✌️
Great vid
You had me with the sweet Gen 1!!
hahah! Thanks man, I sold it but it was sweet
Trying to learn 1st gear wheelies on a 2023 Husqvarna FE501. Thanks for the tutorial.
Thanks a lot !
THE BEST GUAIDE!!
Thank you for this vid. Time to get back out there. I just feel like my little xt250 is not powerful enough to pull a pivot turn like that. My wheelie progression has been so slow and I want to blame it on my bike, but also know thats just an excuse.
I pivot turn my wife’s xt250 quite often to turn her around on right trails. It’s just a timing and suspension pre load thing. The bike will do it easily. Just keep practicing 👌
Dude your camera quality looks amazing
Thanks man! Sub for a video on it
Awesome! You have a GoPro on now! Been a while since I’ve seen videos of yours! (Friend of your dad😂)
Awesome! Thanks for watching. Yep, having fun riding lately and being on the other side of the camera for once!
Thanks for sharing… still struggling to hold mine at the balance point
so cool
✍️ step 1, buy new rear fender because you’re gonna loop it.
I would still recommend learning the basics first on a trials bike. Much lighter and easier to handle.
There is a reason why most of the best riders have a trials background
Would it be easier? Yes, is it the only way? No.
Plus they're just as expensive as a full bike haha.
@@THMXCO It's not the only way but it's easiest and fastest to learn.
Have checked the prices of trials bikes vs enduro bikes ?
@@THMXCO Think how bad Jarvis would look if Toni Bou would ride at the same time with him.
Jarvis is doing trials tricks from 90's and enduro people are like wauuu ! and trials people are like ???? there is nothing
Over and over and over and more till your hands are sore! Explains!
Over and over until the clutch is roasted
Super helpful. Just need to get on that dirt and try!
Those hand guards look stout! think they protect your levers in tip overs (more tech off road stuff, not moto)
Ya man! They protect them extremely well!
they're from www.sxslideplate.com
Nice Truck
👍👍
You're dropping videos at quite the pace!
Haven't watched this yet, but im about to.
Thanks for the frequent content!
Edit: Right on. This is pretty similar to the best advice video wheelie tutorials I've seen.
Level Up Stunt Team has a really basic noob wheelie tutorial for the completely unexperienced.
It was the best/safest one I found when I first started riding dirt a couple years ago.
They stressed repetition and building muscle memory first and foremost, similar to your advice.
Love it. Great upload showcasing your skill and encouraging the riding community to expand theirs!
My right foot has trouble covering the rear break when I’m in a seated position (close to front of seat). Are you sitting further back that you would normally sit?
I feel like slow wheelies are gonna be a lot easier on a 2 stroke because you don't have the aggressive engine braking. I struggle to slow wheelie my 450 because 1st is so snappy.
It's just a skill man! Learn it on one bike you can do it on all :)
I can hop on my buddies 21' KX450 and do em. It's a little easier honestly because of the torque!
Hope you get it down
There's two sides to that for sure man. The engine braking is a good thing if you're expecting it. You can use it to drop the front end, as well as the rear brake. If 1st is too much, use 2nd. You can also try feathering the clutch instead of the throttle. Good luck & just keep practicing.
Have you tried practicing in 2nd?
Ur not high enough..once your at 12 you don't feel the engine breaking
4 stroke tends to be easier. You can just use throttle on/off with a tootle rear brake.
2 stroke is either gas or brake and nothing in between. Lots of clutch work and pretty tricky.
I can wheelie 4 stroke easy. 2 stroke….. I still struggle
It’s been two days of practice. Broke the rear fender today 🥴 I get a good pop, cover the rear brake but everything happens too fast. My instinct is to bail off and not go down with the bike so I pull my feet off the pegs
Man that engine idle sounds like music to my ears
bro i just got a new ktm 150 and still used to the power of a xr100 ion know if ill be able to learn this in 20hrs maybe a week (im a slow learner)
Do you have to pull the clutch all the way in when hitting the brake?
I have such a hard time getting the front brake timing. Is it ok to use the back brake to to compress a bit before popping up?
Of course it is! You got this, just lots of reps and practice
Never done that, whoops were always my problem
Am I going to struggle with my KTM 500? Kinda wish i had something like 2stroke 125, but can't afford two bikes.
Does rear ABS effects on wheelie? Cause my bike has ABS front and rear mt 07
Shouldn't affect it
To do the pivot wheelie, you have to be able to touch the ground with your feet while sitting on your bike, right?
Yes, but I know people that are 5' 2" that can do it!
What gear on a Ktm 300 xcw should I be practicing a wheelie in? Thank you
Hey Josh!
1st or 2nd gear for sure!
You let The all the clutch go ir just to The by point ?
I like those handguards, are they stock or aftermarket? If aftermarket can you send a link plz? Thanks!! Grtz from Belgium
Sxs hand gaurd think ddc racing carries them also slavens racing
@@Bigbodysquid250x well thank you very mucxh
@@superwout cheers from bay area California
w
do you use clutch when wheel is up to keep it up? or just throttle control?
Both, mostly throttle
You guys always forget to say. "Sit all the way back on the seat " 😂😂
You dont sit all the way back, a little bit back from center
Personally i like to ride my dirt bike on one wheel because I got it like that. My KTM 450 is a beast I run a 14 tooth primary sprocket for the nice torque it provides. Gets that bike at 12 right meow
I'm struggling with controlling the rear brake in Mx boots, it's either fully on or not at all.. Any advice?
Try riding down very steep hills and not have the rear brake lock and skid. Just feather it, you will feel the difference.
@@michaelwhipps9234 ok cool.. Standing isn't so bad, but sitting when trying to wheelie the lack of flexibility in the boot makes control v difficult 😪
Nice vidéo;) But I don't understand which way you should be shifting your weight right and left. For exemple if your bike start falling to the left, should you shift your weight on the right side, making your bike even more on the left or the opposite? I don't know why but it is not intuitive for me every time my bike starts to lean on one side, I don't know what to do so I just put my front wheel down😂
Should feel natural, but bike falls to the left, shift to the right to counterbalance.
Why is it seem more intimidating when I’m on a 2 stroke Vs a 4 stroke ?
Because you're not confident and you don't know what the bike is going to do. When you do these exercises, you'll then feel in control and you'll be able to ride the bike a whole lot differently because you won't be afraid of something going wrong.
Where you can order and buy such hand protection as installed on a motorcycle?
sxslideplate.com
What year, make, model, size dirt bike are you riding in this video? Motor almost sounds like a Trials bike.. Also super narrow
Yamaha YZ 250x
can i learn t his on any bike? street? dual sport? adv? enduro?
You will wanna practice on a dirt bike or enduro first. Get good at it then switch to a street bike. Again practice popping the front end up and covering the brake before you fully commit
Can it be done on a DT125?
I think so. I crush it on my Hodaka Combat Wombat. 😂
What is never mentioned is sproket size and this impact on responsiveness
Doesn't seem to make a difference to me man. It's just a skill you have to learn. Once you learn the skill the sprocket size has no effect at all. I can do it on a trials bike as well.
This bike has a 13T 50T setup.
@THMXCO yeh agree that once you have the skill it's easy, but the torque can really help when learning. My 250 2T came factory with the ability to do 130kph in 6th with standard sprokets. 1st and 2nd gear wheelstand without clutch. Just went to 14 front to increase torque. Much easier is 3rd and 4th to get wheel up now
I'd actually argue that you wouldn't want more torque when you're learning to be honest. a 125 would be a great bike to learn these on. Or a 250 4T
I do see what you're saying though
@@deanbilton
My bike keeps on cutting out when it’s in the air
What if I mastered my beta ??
Is that a yz250x?
Its what ive always known about people who are good at wheelies...they had somewhere to be able to practice for hours at some point
Wel....ya? Lmao
looks like Idaho
Do you not need to use the clutch and throttle to keep the bike up?? You never talked about that…
alziamo un pochino il minimo?
Did you learned how to wheelie fast before doing slow wheelies, or you went straight to slow ones?
Fast first. Years ago
What if I'm a short 5'8
Whats your gearing
And how tall are you the bike looks small for you
Yeh, I wish I had a smaller bike to learn on because I'm only 5'3 and my bike is a 500
15 to 20 hours?! I don’t need to wheelie that bad…maybe.
I mean most people spend 15-20 hours a week on their phone or on the couch. So it's all perspective I guess
Good point. Embrace it as exercise.
Yet another wheelie video with no instruction on how to stop the bike falling to the side, just how to get the front wheel up. Which is the hardest part. In short, if the bike starts to fall left, immediately push forward on the right grip - turning the bar can also help. You also have to kick the bike over to the right with your hips. So: the second the bike starts to fall left, lean the bike to the right. Upper body still, lower body out to the right. Alas this comes with muscle memory for you to be able to ‘catch’ it fast enough. Also practice wheeling uphill which is much easier.
You must not have watched the whole video as I clearly go over this!
Cheers :) ☺
another wheelie video with no mention of starting gear.
First gear or second gear
very good lesson thank you!@@THMXCO
Dude still can't wheelie.
Gonna take a lot of time man! Lots and lots of time and reps
You'll get it bro just keep practicing.
You just gotta commit bro even if you fall off the bike. You’ll get more and more comfortable. Not sure if it’s feasible or not but getting a smaller bike (klx110) like I did helped a lot on the 250 and 450. I just watched UA-cam vids and fell off the bike a lot but it’ll click the first time you throw it up.
its not that easy :D
Beef with ur people will be casted aside
I have no idea what this means
