GSXR750 Wheelie Practice (Fails Included)
Ойын-сауық
I haven't actually gone out to practice wheelies on my gsxr in soooo long, I've hardly ridden the bike the past few months just between the weather and staying so busy, but it was definitely nice to get out and get more familiar with the bike and relearn some of the basics. Thanks for watching everyone, I know a lot of you love watching wheelies like myself. If you have any recommendations on wheelie tip videos or anything please let me know! :)

Is there less chance of looping when your doing 3rd gear wheelies as opposed to second? Asking for a friend 🤷🏽♂️

I think it’s funny how most people can either do stand ups or sit downs but usually not both. I can do sit downs forever but my stand ups suck

I think it boils down to which they prefer and then commit more time to. When I had my ninja1000 I was much better at sit downs bc they felt more comfortable, but once I bought my 750 I started doing more stand ups until I eventually quit doing sit downs, hence why I suck at them now 😂
I totaled my bike doing a wheelie so I’ll just live vicariously through your wheelies! Lmao!

Your stand ups are legit bro! I miss that about my older R1 and GSXR-750. I too was good with the stand ups. Now the MT09 has that ride by wire throttle and is way harder to stay at balance point and hard to do stand ups on cause the bars are a lot higher. Have fun and be safe and keep riding them nice stand ups! 🔥🔥

Hey man, yeah I’ve heard those mt09’s are very touchy during wheelies, I’d assume 2nd and 3rd, maybe even 4th gear would be somewhat smooth

@@SALTxTHExWOUND Yea I do them in second and sometimes get a decent one but its hard to keep it at balance point, I'm sure someone that is really good at dragging the rear brake could ride good ones but I just keep my foot on that brake just in case... when I was learning on this one I did exactly what you said I would set it down using the brake just to get used to it. Now when I start riding the wheelie out I just use the quick shifter and change to 3rd and it sits down. Went up and rode the cherohala and stopped at the bald river falls yesterday, put in 335 miles and I was dead by the time I got home lol.

Long time fan here, congrats on the marriage and everything else, man! I wanted to ask you, especially with your wheelie skills, do you use the "clean air" mod that stunters like Brian_636 use, or do you use any other mods for wheelies (since you never have the hole in your rear seat for foot holds). Keep killing it, Salt!

Hey, thank you bro! I don’t have any clean air mod, the GSXR stock is fine to do wheelies, my oil light has never came on once. I think if you’re doing lot stunting and doing wheelies for 5+ minutes at a time it’s probably not a bad idea but I don’t “stunt ride” so I see no point in doing on my own bike 👍🏻

@@SALTxTHExWOUND nice. That's what I assumed. You may ride a wheelie out for a couple miles at a time, but I'm sure you're not riding wheelies 24/7 like the stunters do. Gotta slap a full crash cage on and get dirty to do all that

I have a video specifically on wheeling the gsxr 750, another viewer commented and asked for it as well and I linked it in the comments for him if you want to look there. If not just search “how to wheelie a gsxr750” and you should see my video pop up 👍🏻
The gsxr750 was my favorite wheelie bike.i couple ride em for days. Now on my 2019 cbr1000rr sp1. Because of the power it's much harder for me to control the wheelie. I don't even do 2nd gear because it's to brutal. Has to be 3 or 4tg gear. And then being in those gears I'm doing over 100mph. So that's sketchy on it's own.

But I was the all year round rider I seen and warned guys that had no car ride or attempt the winter on a bike with out a baffle Not good I would say you will crack some thing from no back pressure but no wheelies in the winter I held up traffic but made it to work and Low and behold rode through a hole winter in pa On my GSXR and was respected for that it was cool.

When I do a wheelie you can SHIFT between gears in a wheelie just don't use clutch it works for me and I can go from 60mph to 110mph in a wheelie you are holding your speed at certain speed..but you can ride good bro.
