    standup pitbike wheelies

    how do you keep the bike to go straight on staggered standup wheelies?

    am I going too slow?

    getting the '01 XR80R up on one wheel is no problem because I have a bmx peg on the left side of the rear axle. but after I stand up and get on the throttle to get the front wheel up, the bike starts to tip to either side so I can't ride the wheelie out

    I've tried careful, careful balancing, but that only works for ~10 feet. After that it feels ready to fall so I tap the rear brake or let off the gas to bring her down

    Rent a circus bear, and watch how he does it.

    um... learn to balance... you should be able to steer your wheelie left or right. let some air out of the rear tire if you need a crutch, but be careful that you dont rip your stem out of the tube.

    Wait till the firsttime you loop a 3rd gear wheelie and end up with a pair of ripped shorts, bruised ass, and hurt ego. You'll realize very quick how to do one.
