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.

Hang out there, we may flame, but we don't hate.

My attitude is in serious need of readjustment, and I'm ok with that.

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.
