How to wheelie: 2- motorcycle

    1
    Wear protective clothing. You never want to get onto a motorcycle without the proper gear. This includes a thick motorcycle helmet, leather gloves, jeans or leather pants, and a strong leather jacket. You also want some strong boots, preferable leather, with some proper grip. When you're first getting started, it's also not a bad idea to wear elbow, ankle or knee guards, as you'll be going down a lot.

    Find a secluded street or road. Remember that learning this will take you quite some time, and you'll probably take a couple bad spills. You don't want to harm any pedestrians around you or crash your bike into any cars, either mobile or parked. Your constant attempts are also going to make a lot of noise, so you don't want to disrupt those around you.
    • It's technically illegal to wheelie on a street bike, so finding a secluded place to practice will also help you evade any trouble from law enforcement.

    Learn on a bike with enough power. If you're attempting to learn the power wheelie on a sport bike, you'll probably want a 500 cc motorcycle, at the minimum. You'll be lifting the front wheel solely with your acceleration, so you want to make sure that your bike has the power to pull that off.
    • You can also learn the power wheelie on a dirtbike. If you have access to one or want something a little more comfortable, this could be a smart idea. A 100 or 150 cc bike should have enough power to practice this stunt.

    Check your rear tire for any damage. You'll be spending a significant amount of time on this back tire when you're practicing wheelies, so make sure that your tire is in good shape. You don't want any wobbling on that end. It's also ideal to run your tire pressure a little bit lower than you might normally, as it will make the wheelie more stable.

    Remove a tip-over sensor if your bike has one. This sensor might cause your bike to shut off if you tip too far backward. You will be tipping backward, and because you're just learning, may tip even further back than totally comfortable. Make sure your bike doesn't give out on you mid-wheelie by removing this sensor.
    • Your back exhaust may also hit the ground, depending on where it's located on your bike, so make sure that it won't tap the ground while you're on one wheel. If it does, you may grind the road and fall off of the bike.

How to wheelie: 1- bike

How to wheeling a bike

  1. 1
    Wear your protective gear. You won't need the same level of protection when practicing on a bike, but it's always good to practice safely. Make sure you're wearing a helmet, at the bare minimum, and knee and elbow pads if you want to be really careful. While starting wheelies on a bike may seem totally harmless, you can still take some bad spills and hurt yourself.
  2. Image titled Do a Basic Wheelie on a Motorcycle Step 2
    2
    Practice while riding uphill. Start at an easy gear. Two or three is probably best, so there won't be too much excessive pedaling. The hill shouldn't be too steep, but learning on a nice, gradual slope can help you maintain your balance and keep your front wheel in the air.[2]When you're learning to wheelie, your pedaling may become spastic, causing you to fall off the bike. The resistance of pedaling uphill will counteract those forces. That way, when you practice on flat ground, you'll maintain a straighter trajectory of motion.
    • It's not necessary, but it is easier to practice on a mountain bike, rather than a BMX bike. Their back wheels are much more stable, and the front of the bike will come up more easier. The large wheel base will also make you feel more powerful.
  3. Image titled Do a Basic Wheelie on a Motorcycle Step 3

    Maintain a comfortable speed on flat ground. This speed will vary on a case-by-case basis, but you can aim for somewhere between 5-10 MPH Moving too quickly might cause you to lose control when you're only on one wheel. If you go to slow, however, you may not have the momentum to properly lift the front into the air.
  4. Image titled Do a Basic Wheelie on a Motorcycle Step 4

    Pull your front wheel into the air. This will require some brute force from your upper body, as well as some powerful pedaling. Crouch over your front handlebars to prepare to pull up, and don't forget to look forward. Once you have the handlebars in the air, lean your weight back and continue pedaling. You may lose balance or not keep it up for long, but eventually, you'll feel yourself sinking into the wheelie for a longer period of time.
  5. Image titled Do a Basic Wheelie on a Motorcycle Step 5
    5
    Maintain your motion in the wheelie. Once you've gotten the front wheel in the air a few times successfully, you'll want to start riding the wheelie for longer. When you're in the air, soften your grip and extend your arms. You also want to use your rear brake to adjust your leverage while in your wheelie. Some people keep the rear brake held for the duration of the wheelie, while others simply tighten their grip on it when they feel the front wheel coming too high into the air. The harder you push on the brake, the harder you'll have to pedal to keep your front tire in the air.

wheeling championship

Wheeling


League


Many people practice this sport without knowing. Each zerinho on the asphalt, the steep with the motorcycle or the famous grau, many passionate about motorcycles make the streets outside is a sport. However these maneuvers must be made with safety and awareness. The best way to do that is to professionalize this passion, with rules, Championships and encouragement. This will be done nationally from now on with the creation of the Brazilian championship of Stunt.
Known by the world as Wheeling, the sport began to be practiced in Brazil in the Decade of 80. Now called the Stunt. The game that comes down to soil stunts on two wheels was approved by CBM (Brazilian motorcycle Confederation) and will be one of the Brazilian Championships held in 2013.
The recognition of the sport happened during the general meeting, held on 2 and 3 February in Mogi das Cruzes-SP. Leandro Callegas, Swift, who is President of the Brazilian Federation of Wheeling, is the Director.
The competition will be held as follows. The pilot is presented in two batteries. "In the first heat the pilot has five minutes to perform maneuvers with the front and the back of the motorcycle. In the second, two minutes and the difficulty degree is greater because the pilot already comes with the front of the bike. With that he can't miss ", explains Leandro Callegas.
The expectation is that the sport is even more widespread from now on increasing the number of practitioners. "I'm surprised every day every corner of Brazil you will find practitioners. Now with the recognition of the CBM believe the sport will grow even more, "says the Stunt Director of CBM.
Practitioners of Stunt will soon be able to make the affiliation by the CBM Web site in order to participate in the Brazilian Championship. The forecast is that the calendar is released in March.
