wtf wheelies........

[DannyDFL]

all of a sudden my bike no matter what u do when i bring it up on the highway at like 30....as soon as it hits balance point the fuckin thing pulls hard right. everyone watchin me is sayin my posture is fine,i used to be able to go straight no prob. anyone got any ideas? Also as far as i know i didnt bend my swing arm an im positive my rear wheel is straight

[PrettyBoy Stuntz]

just cause your wheel is straight dont mean the swingarm isnt bent, it could be small as hell. Personally thats what I think cause exactly you were dead center last night, in the middle of the road everything was fine and you shoot over like a rocket... get your ass up well see if we can figure it out riding today

[BritishNick]

have you been doing donuts on one side more than the other...

check the tyre, sounds like it's been squared off in some weird way...

+1 to the tire

Once it gets real thin it changes its profile unevenly

[Boonie636]

Hopfully its a tire and not a swingarm

[ryan]

did you get a new tire? i jus put a new tire on my bike same prob but once they get a week or 2 old its all good

[rawchrome]

did you check to see if mabye u had any loose swingarm bolts and did you play with the tire pressure/

im pretty sure its just me .........today i went ridin and some went straight and some went crooked.....some could be corrected and some couldnt. i was at like 13psi

[BritishNick]

I found that the ideal for slow wheelies (for me) was around 19psi, any lower and it strangly got unstable again....

have you checked to see is some joker has tied one end of a rope to your leg and the other anchored to the ground???? :banghead:

Might be your belts slipped or are slipping in the tire. Thats what happened too one of mine, but I put a different tire on and its straight now. But I definetely know it wasnt my posture since Ive been able to ride long wheelies for a while now. LOL.

Hope that helps.

ok so today i re-adjusted my tire cuz i looked at the marks and notice it was off by a little bit. i went a put 20 psi in the tire took a ride down rt1 and it didnt pull as bad like i could ride bp for a while until i felt it pull to the right. so maybe i should ride at my spot at 12 psi thne hit the streets on the same pressure huh? lol im a dumbass and im sure i need a new tire cuz the belts are slippin.

coming from a pro rider like myself your tire pressure needs to be between 20 and 25 psi and for slow stunts about 5 to 12 psi if you have any trouble shooting e-mail me at

Mine typically pulls to the left....but I know it's me. I have more weight on my left foot than I do on my right (I think it's cause I'm used to the foot in the grab bar wheelies on the quad). I can lean all over the bike and make it look like I'm leaning right, but the bike will still be going left because that is what foot my weight is on. I have a hard time transfering the weight from one foot to the other....It's almost like my legs freeze or something. I haven't been riding bikes long, but I'm not nervous at all in a wheelie, I just can't make my legs move...hahaha.

I've been slowly getting better. Seems to help if I pay attention a little bit before I pick the front end up, to make sure my weight is even on both feet.

Not sure if that's your problem at all, but if it is be careful when transfering your weight from one foot to the other....Suddenly I find myself going from all my weight on my left foot, to all my weight on my right foot and the front end will start to wobble really bad...and that's no fun at 130mph.

Anyway, I'm pretty much a newb at the bike thing, but maybe this helps a little.

Good luck man.
