umm ive tried pretty hard to pull mine up and even with -1 its hard, I have to hit everything just right to really get it up i can do little ones all day with on off throttle im asking how much of a difference does it make per tooth when you add in the back. my bike is lowered so i really dont know if that effects it at all

if your bike is lowered your not going to wheelie. it streches the wheel base which inhibits the bike from doing wheelies.

I have a k&n, shorty two bros, jet kit and -1 in the front with a 520 conversion and roll ons in first bring the front up, shift to second it comes up again. cool weather intensifies this as i found out tonight on accident. If i would have went with the -1/+2 combo i would probably be getting a good asphalt back scratch

really hmm on good days when i first start the bike and its not all the way warm yet i can pull the front up in first not alot though so maybe lowering it has something to do with it I am also K&N, stage 2 jetted, -1, and short D&D pipe, I tried some clutch ones today and it pulled up fairly easy in 2nd

try compressing the front shocks with your body weight just before you blip the throttle. that little extra will get your bike in the air no problem. its just a quick push down on the handlebars.

When I had -1 front, I could power wheelies in 1st by rocking the throttle.  I would have to clutch 2nd to get it up sitting or standing.  Now it has -1Front/+4Rear with a 520 conv and a slip-on.  Still can''t power 2nd, but clutching 2nd is waaay more fun!

does it matter how much the bike has been lowered.. i did pull it up once before getting the lowering done but since then its pretty difficult... everyone keeps trying to get me to clutch it up but dont want to screw anything up on the bike
