when you say 'cought second gear', you mean shifting form first to second while on one wheel?
I'm still just learning the in's and out's of this stuff but as soon as I mount my new tires I'll be working on shifting while rideing out a wheelie. as of now I can get it up and ride it out all the way to the end of first.

Forks? I've got forks.
Endos are crazy hard, I bet. The balance point seems a lot harder than a wheelie (or at least, so I assume).
they are because there's no brake to keep you going past the balance point. I'm a big fan of stoppies and low speed wheelies. They both show good bike control IMO.
yup i couhgt 2nd gear on the wheelie . and i used the cluch . why i dont know but i did . i know better your supose to find the sweet spot but no i pulled it and shifted and keeped it up for a min. like i said. i did not expect to keep it up
