how on earth did he do this?

He basically showed you how he did it...just watch his RPM's and you can get an idea of his body position reflected in the gauge cluster (he probably bounces as he clutches)...he's clutching it up while in the right RPM range.

ah right so he is basically getting it perfectly balanced to get the wheelie up at those speeds, wow you'd need alot of experiance to do that at 'them' speeds.
