Get an OBD2 reader and plug it into the extra spot thats on the right side near the extra fuse and press #
Seemed like a good idea at the time

You're gonna cost this guy a lot of money by telling him to get an OBD2 reader man! 

The way to do it is to take the engine out of the bike and remove both pistons.  Under each piston there is a bolt.  You need to turn each of these bolts 183 degrees counterclockwise if your bike is all stock.  Put it all back together and you'll pop a wheelie faster than a busa.  That's one of those hidden things the factory doesn't want you to know about.   ;)

Are you talking about the torque setting for your rear axle so that it doesnt shift when you dump the clutch or are you asking about what sprockets to use to help you get the front wheel up?  :dunno_white:

OK, here's how you really reset your torque settings:
1. Find a workshop with a large industrial vice.
2. Remove your helmet.
3. Place your head in between the jaws of the vice.
4. Slowly tighten the vice until you hear a cracking sound. Listen carefully for the sound as I don't think you'll feel anything.
5. Tighten vice 10 more turns just to be sure. :thumb:
