How to Do a Wheelie on a Motorcycle?
2 Answers
Place both feet on the ground, shift into first gear, and while twisting the throttle with your right hand and quickly releasing the clutch with your left hand, pull the handlebars upward forcefully with both hands. At this moment, push off the ground hard with your feet, adopting a posture that lifts the bike upward, and the front wheel will easily leave the ground.
I've been riding motorcycles for over a decade, and I know you want to learn wheelies, which is actually quite dangerous. The key is to find a high-displacement bike, preferably an off-road model for tracks. When starting, lean your body forward as much as possible and grip the handlebars tightly without loosening. Suddenly give it full throttle while pulling your body backward—this action must be smooth and quick. If you hesitate, you'll definitely flip over. I recommend practicing rear-wheel slides first to get a feel for it; sand or grass is safest. Full protective gear is a must—helmet, knee pads, and elbow guards are non-negotiable. I once saw a beginner practicing wheelies without protection and ended up breaking his collarbone. It's best to have a professional coach guide you—never try it blindly on your own. This trick also damages the bike—the chain and clutch wear out quickly, so check and maintain them after a few attempts. Honestly, doing this on public roads is illegal and dangerous. If you really want to try, go to a closed track.
