there are still some times that i get that feeling. i dont know if they will ever go away. i guess its just your senses letting you know that something isnt right. you just gotta push through that. it takes a lot to loop a stock bike. im not saying its not easy, but that it takes a lot of throttle and hard clutch popping to loop. but dragging the brake and closing the throttle is almost a sure way of not looping. remember that.

So I've finally got my slow wheelies down pretty slow...now my problem is that i start going so slow that it keeps wanting to die. Talked to a couple guys and they say you gotta play with the clutch when goin that slow but everytime i try it slams down.

rear tire pressure should be around 12psi and turn your idle up to around 3500-4000rpm and it'll be more stable while you're dragging the rear brake and it won't die out as easily. also anyone that is going to branch out on a slow wheelie to other tricks, i would recommend a hand brake setup. it's hard to get used to but once you do it's great

The clutch helps alot because if the bike starts to stall you can pull the clutch in real quick and bring the rpm's back up..It doesn't take much clutch at all to keep it from stalling..

So you bought D's old bike, huh? I thought that vid was Chin (when he visited D) at first... Don't you think that your advice should be to learn engine brake and to COVER the rear brake...not to fade it out? Is that really you in the vid, cuz the advice kinda ain't makin a lot of sense man.
