Banshee wheelie....

[BklynLOD]

So I just got a banshee, and its a bitch to wheelie for me. Even though I've only rode it like three times, i feel like a oser that i can't hold it up. But I'll get it. Any tips and triks???? What gear you guys usually throw it up in?????

It's very easy to wheelie a banshee, just pop the clutch and try to use the rear brake and give it more throttle til you get balanced ... i like to do slow wheelies in second gear.

 

1. you need a good banshee

2. put ur left leg on the grab bar and right leg on the rear brake ..

3. pop the clutch and pull the banshee up

4. try to get a balance, throttle and rear brake ...

5. wear a helmet

grab bar wheelies are for twats lol

 

anyone can wheelie any quad whilst standing on the bar.

 

just pull back and haul ass!

[klemet banshee]

you need tires that hook up

have good throttle response

 

start off in dry gas and dump it enough to get it up hahahaha

start going forward use the brake to bring you forward

 

practice is the most important!

Second gear seems best.

 

When sitting, I can just rev it up a bit, and drop it, and it pops up (easiest from a roll).

 

If you have the stock heel guards and plates, lock your feet into the back lip, stand up, pull back, and do the same thing (carefully, it's easy to flip.)

 

Third gear you can do standing wheelies that you can ride for a while if you do it right.

 

 

Just practice. That's what I did.

 

 

 

Edit-

 

Oh yeah, feathering the rear brake will keep you from flipping.

 

And grab bar wheelies are for bitches.

Two things you have to have if you plan on putting more miles on the rear tires than the front tires:

 

Get a stator plate that allows you to adjust your timing. (advance that sucker)

Get a set of some really good rear tires.

 

It takes practice because it isn't a torque monster like some of the 4 strokes out their, but you can do some good ones with the right setup.

Do you have any work done to your bike? I have a fairly decent amount of engine work, but I have a +6 swingarm. It's a little hard for me to get that thing up with so much weight in front of the back tires. I can do it, but I have to get WAY back on it. Second does seem like the best gear to get it to walk. First has more than enough torque, but you run out of gear fast.

For sure. Sounds like we are on the same page then.

 

EDIT-

 

When I was stock, and when I am now modded it was always:

1st Gear -- Not enough gear to ride it out...but fast to stand up.

2nd Gear -- Best all around. Fast to come up, can ride out well.

3rd Gear -- Gotta drop it harder to stand it up, and be higher in the RPMs, and it rode faster and a really good distance (it was just a bitch to bring it up...you really gotta do it right.)

 

 

The only thing that changed is the speed at which it came up, and how easily it came up (between stock and modded) obviously because of more power. Gearing was relatively the same. 3rd may be easier now.

 

2nd is cakewalk, my favorite wheelie gear. (Good height and distance, fair speed)

 

3rd is nice too.... (Fair height, badass distance, badass speed.)

 

I'm always showing off so I've messed around a lot with stunting. :biggrin:

[DallasGDub]

I am trying to do a wheelie, I cant get a bite hard enough to pop the front up. But I can if I get a rolling start and I pop 2nd gear, in long grass, sitting back on the tires and stand up as the front comes up....let off on the gas and just work the break.....It takes practice to hit the band just enough to get it up.

 

NOTE: I have seen more people hurt getting bored and messing around doing simple wheelies. So I don't do it on the shee anymore. But I wont lie and say I have never did it.

 

Now when busting ass thru the trails, it will stand up in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. But I run a stock swinger on a semi-worked motor, so it has no choice be to come up. The power has to go somewhere.

 

(That is what I love most about a Shee....that slap your momma in the face short burst of power like your about to take flight)

Get a - length swinger and you'll hook up a lot better. Far easier to wheelie but at the same time it's not uncontrolable, the front end will stay down if you want it to.

Another thread where you contribute nothing to the actual topic at hand, and just ridicule people, genius.

Thanks for all the replies. I appreciate the help.

 

It's not so much teaching as it is giving pointers and tips. It's only obvious that I will not learn over the internet. But I guess there's always gotta be that one person on the boards.

 

 

Thanks again

Just be careful and watch out for that powerband man! It will get you if you aren't careful!

 

If you aren't that experienced...I'd try doing it in first for a little, until you get comfortable with how you move your weight around, how the bike responds to throttle, etc.

 

After that, in 2nd gear you'll be golden. :cool:

 

If you can squeeze enough power out of her, 3rd gear can be fun.

and 4th is even more fun!
