thanks, what gear you doing them in. clutchin them seems a hell of alot easier then powerin them up to me anyway

to pow wheelie im rollin my r6s up to about 8k rolling off and crackin WOT. but i cant quite seem to clutch it up in first. i heard you can ride up to about 4k rpms flick the clutch while accelerating and the front wheel will pop up. if you dont mind giving me a step by step what you do and if you let the clutch out quick or slow. it would help alot.

Watch this guy's videos. He's on a Kawa but the general technique is the same. The only difference will really be the RPM numbers he says.
I put them in order in a playlist for you

damn i need to find a road like that!! i cant find one to just mess around on!

Clutchin' wheelies are way easy! grab the clutch with your index and middle finger, at any speed in first gear, it doesn't take much. pull in quick and grab some throttle. try it a couple times, you'll get it. just make sure you do it all in one fluid motion, it might scare you at first but as soon as you can control it, it's all good....

man on the r6s it just seems to have to much torque in first for me to clutch and ride out. i take it to around like 30 up to even 65 in second gear and pull the clutch in with my index finger only and rev to around 12 grand or so, i dont know i dont look at the revs while i do it and let out the clutch. at first when i would do it i would chop the throttle as it jumped up now i hold it and make adjustments as i come up to the point. try them in second though hell of alot easier and less violent to. be carefull though esspecially in first gear theres alot of power there oh yea and on your question on the clutch just drop it fast and only use one finger on the clutch
