good luck im running 14/45 and no wheelies on my gs

i ran this for a month or so too for stunting. but i rode a little more highway than i led myself to beleive so went back to 16/45

this was a good median for stunting and short highway rides
with the 16/45 could you do a wheelie with out the clutch, just rolling on the throttle pretty hard?

no way. forget that. even with th 14/45 i couldnt power wheelie unless i stood on the rear pegs

EDIT: but with the 16/45 clutching up was still easy and made finding the balance point still no problem

I've ran a 12 tooth front, with a 42 tooth rear, and could only barely power wheelie, and had to pull up really hard on the bars.  basically, if you want to power wheelie, you bought the wrong bike :thumb:

yea you did. BUT that said, its much better to learn clutched wheelies anyway. using the clutch to pop up creats a much more predictable launch, and allows for slower speed wheelies. which are cooler, naturally.
