How to wheelie a small cc bike | RokON VLOG #25

spring from CL hello chos hello rockers we are here in beautiful Chile Santiago we have a day off today so I thought that this time we are going to record with front lenses a Vlog a little different, so I read a lot of comments on my YouTube channel and there were many requests that I explain how to do a

wheelie

on a low cc

bike

, so with my 250 Duke, a standard and a standard

bike

, I'm going to show you how to do a

wheelie

. I'm going to try to make it as simple as possible so you can understand it and try it at home, okay let's try to do some wheelies, oh I forgot something really important.

My equipment first, safety equipment, helmet, gloves, knee protectors, chest protector, back protector, so much. as much as possible to keep you safe, you never know when you crash and also when you are learning, but we are going to try to make it safe and the second really important thing is not to practice this on the street, but in an empty place, let's say. a parking lot so that there are no cars that you can crash into or that crash into you security security when you have these two points then you can continue with the tutorial and learn how to drive it so that everyone has their own path how to do it explains how to do a wheelie so I'm going to do my best to try to explain it as easily as possible so there's a big difference between doing a wheelie with a big cc bike and a

small

cc bike like this 250 Duke here On the big bikes, I'm sure you have more power and it's easier to do a wheelie on the

small

cc bike, there is a little more feel and you need to pull a little harder when you try to do a wheelie, so what?

A lot of aerobatic pilots do when they learn the first tricks, they usually take a little bit of air out of the tire, so that's exactly what I'm going to do now, it's also important for you to catch a little bit or have a little bit more. balance while learning the wheelie, okay, I did this based on my feelings, but you shouldn't go below 1.0 bar because then the bike becomes a little unstable. One of the most important things is the timing of three things: first clutch, second throttle, about half. referees and cover the rear brake if something goes wrong and everything you do in the first gear moving slowly and then trying to catch this moment and lift the bike with your body weight and synchronize the clutch throttle and cover the brake so that was in theory, so let's now get to the practical side, now we are in the exercise of doing a wheelie, so we are here trying to capture the moment when you press the clutch accelerator, release the clutch, lean back and it makes a wheelie, which is why it is the typical mistake that everyone tends to make.

What they do while learning to handle the wheel is that they lean forward and pull the bike with their hands, which is not right, the correct way to do it is to lean back a little, lift the bike with their own weight. body so while gripping you lean on the back and it's much easier to lift the bike here you can see I'm pulling the bike with my own hands and leaning on the front but I can't lift the front wheel and this is the difference when you sit back a little bit, lean back and shift your entire body weight onto the back of your bike and grab it, this is what I call doing a wheelie step by step, so this is the safest way , my opinion, on how to learn to drive a wheel in this process. you are learning the moment when you press the clutch, RAV in the mid range and cover the brake and this point of learning the timing is the most important later on, also when you are doing a wheelie and once you learn this, you go to be able always do a wheelie on any bike you want, so the next step is already for Advance, let's call the specialists, so the next step is to reach the optimal point, the so-called balance.

I'm playing with the throttle and regaining my balance as the bike rolls. I'm covering the rear brake in case I'm going to accelerate too much and need to get the front wheel back safely, that's what I call a sweet spot and this is the best place to be on the bike, I mean what What you shouldn't forget is not only how to do a wheelie and pop a wheelie, but also how to slowly bring the front wheel onto the asphalt for two reasons if you are too fast on the wheelie and suddenly hit the front wheel. you can lose control, the front wheel starts to wobble and the whole bike and then you fly on the asphalt and you can also destroy the roof of the front fork and you don't want to do this either, yes, you will learn this from the exercise tutorial of pop a wheelie Vlog done, yes, I hope I can teach you all the basics in a safe way and I can see now in the future many wheelies from my rockers, you know, send me some videos of how to pop wheelies and I will try to teach you by commenting your video, you will find the email in the description of this video, search for it send me your videos, I will help you improve your style of how to do it correctly. let's do a wheelie and that was all for our not really regular Vlog, so let's continue now with the regular one.

Okay, back to regular
