changing gear in a wheelie??

I don't know if this is physics or what, but there seems to be some connection between balance point and me shitting my pants. Every time I come close to balance point, I get the leg gravy. Is there any logical explanation for this?

Could be the strange angle at which your rectum is situation at b.p. This coupled with the speed at which you are traveling times the inverse of the coefficient of friction = aggravated bowel syndrome squared.

scary thing about BP, its just as easy to fall on your back as landing back on the front wheel.

i struggle to lift it in second.what ravs should i try.i dont look at the rev counter when i use the clutch in 1st.maybe i am just toolow in the rev range when i try to wheelie it in second.when i am in first i obviously dont need to rev it too high before i let the clutch out.
i have not reached the balance point yet.i am not scared to reach it but i am scared of how quickly my front wheel wants to get there.i am worried that i am going to go past the balance point and keep on going.

me too! it comes up to fast to find the balance point and i dont wanna go past it!

Rode a wheelie at BP today for the first time, very very scary. i have started to learn in 2nd but i have stock sprockets so power wheelies are not really working out for me. still don't have the ballS to go all out in a clutch wheelie. Either way I really don't think i will ever try and shift while on one, would be shitty to get stuck in N and slam the front.

Great wheelie guys.I just started learning bike but think that soon I will be able to do wheelie in next few weeks.
