Well if you have read all the info and watched the video's i dont think there is anything anyone here can do to help. About the only possible way to give you advice is if you had a video up, you could be leaned forward, arms locked, bike problems, not enough gas, too much clutch, and the list goes on and on and on. Anything anyone told you would be a guess, get a friend who knows what they are doing to watch you, or just ride more till you figure it out on your own like 99.9 % of us did.

haven't rode that bike, but you may need to real gas that bitch.

after you clutch it don't chop the throttle. stay on it, if it doesn't come up give it more gas. thats all there is to it...

just practice

hahaha, you guys are mean. When i first started 2nd gear wheelies I used to think the same thing that my bike couldnt do it. Its all in how much you can roll the throttle while slippin and how fast you get it to that point. think of snapping your throttle hand and just tapping the clutch enough to let the revs rise

like i said to your previous post ( the same thing) you bike probably doesnt have enough power. I belive your bike has only like 76hp at the crank. most of the bikes now days have 100hp at the crank, and weigh like 60lbs less , 600s that is. you can only clutch it in first. unless you try really hard and give her all she has you might be able to get it up in second but i doubt it . your best bet to start stuntin is to get a newer bike, f4i or something would be the best because f3s are hard to get up in second if you even can. later...

you guys are psycho. btw, if he were to get a pizza pan sprocket i bet you really can stunt anything. darius stunts his 50cc nsr i believe. lots of vids of guys stunting 49cc chinese pocket bikes. Lots of vids of old bikes stunnin.... if the kan of tuna can do it, why not an f3?

anywho, you may not be able to pick it up while on the tank but you can always pick it up then transition to the tank, once you get good, unlike me :(
