I wouldn't recommend starting in second gear though. Weak gear in these trannies. I lock up the front brake, release the clutch and jump on the throttle at the same time. Use a couple fingers on the front brake lever and use the others to twist the throttle. Once you have the tire spinning, you can modulate the throttle to control the bike. Just be ready for the rear to start moving to the side once you start. Once you get that down, you can release the brake slowly to keep it burning while creeping forward or whatever speed you want the bike to move. Be ready in case the tire catches up and hooks up though. It will make for a very exciting couple seconds otherwise if it does. If you try it while rolling, careful. If you don't get the throttle/clutch right, you can bog the motor, start spinning the tire or the tire can hook instantly and bike can do just about anything. Too little throttle and the motor will bog or tire will catch and kill motor. Too much and that tire will start spinning and have a mind of it's own. Stand off the seat to remove the weight on the bike, push your weight forward and release the clutch. Having weight off back tire will make it easier to break tire loose, unless you have one of Plummens turbo motors and then it wouldn't be a problem at all!

yup, what he said.... :laugh: ....

Where you do it also makes a difference. Tried it once on concrete....found out why they like concrete launch pads at the strip. Man...that stuf had hooks. Out in front of the house on the tar and gravel road, now that's another story. You can get a bike with 1 hp smoking that tire. Looks impressive but can get exciting when using that "skinny little hard compound rear tire". Besides...he said he wanted to learn how to do wheelies, didn't he? :laugh:

i always do my burnouts in second gear never hurt anything yet, start by getting the rear tire wet then grab the front brake with a couple of fingers and start rolling the throttle on at the same time snap the clutch out as the tire starts to bite you must get the throttle turn fully open. practice the movements with out every trying the actual burnout until they come natural to you the reason why i use second gear is higher wheel speed less time bagging the motor for the same result. remember go full throttle as quick as you can if you have a rev limiter. once you do a few it will become second nature. if fact i used to do so many burnouts i used to measure my summer of riding not by miles but in how many tires i went thru. as far wheelies go iuse a wheelie bar so that tells you i don't like them or do them.

How could he pull in the clutch? The bike's dragging his ass across the lot.

The truth of the matter is that stunting, like racing is expensive. Little faux pas like these are every day shiite, when you're prepared, which is never the case on the street or in a parking lot.
