First things first before you even touch your clutch, you put your foot on the rear brake, and the first 10 times you pop the clutch, hit the rear brake, so it becomes an instinct to press the brake, if you feel like you are going too high, saved me from looping a number of times

I have a 2016 ktm 690 and thanks to your tips I can wheelie for about 2-3 seconds! Prior to this I couldnt even get it up! Thanks!

good one tho :P im waiting for the "Expert" one.. :) I need to go further back than 12oClock :P

This is one of the best videos to follow for a beginner. In the same day I moved from beginner to intermediate/advanced. Just picked up my new to me 2017 KTM 690 Enduro R last night. Want to master this part of wheeling so I can use wheel up techniques off road. Thanks for the video.

Most other videos do not explain the technique in an understandable way AT all. You make it look / sound easier! Thank you and well done!

Well, i think your Tutorial is one of the best in the net. You explain very good. It helped me a lot. Greetings from Germany

i love wheelies. Thx for the detailed guide!

Thats the way! Best tutorial on YT! Helped a lot

Recently saw someone's video where they mentioned using the front break as a way to compress the front suspension. Then immediately after letting off the front break clutch and gas.. Works like a charm. wish I learned about this earlier. I don't like pulling back on the bars so much so I went straight to stand up wheelies so I could compress just by pumping my legs.

You did great, dont listen to the haters. More 690 videos!!

Great video man! Cant wait for more! As far as i know you are the only "motovlogger" riding a 690 sm thats sick man! Keep it up! Greeting from Sweden!

Subbed! from Melbourne Good shit my man You're the only motorvlogger i have besides like RJ, AJ, Riding with Tom and Ariderslife Very keen to see where you take this channel! :)

This video deserves more views, very good video easy to understand

How I learned to wheelie, start off by popping bike up and hitting back brake do that about 20-30 times or more, balance point starts as your forks straighten with the road so if you have good back brake control you can always monitor your front forks and this will give you confidence to pull back more also ease into the drop back don't be snappy on throttle very smooth on 4 strokes you can allow the engine braking to bring you down back brake isn't as important but u must have it as instinct because engine braking will only do so much. On the DRZ400 you practice in 2nd gear around 30-35 kmh don't practice wheelies in first gear maybe to pop up but its actually the most dangerous the torque is way more forgiving in 2nd. Lots of seat time, throttle control and you'll have it.

What a fantastic video, only one thing i wanted to see was a clear view of throttle with clutch drop but it is hard to get that.... keep up the great work buddy

Hi Winston great vid.

Solid tutorial mate. Subbed. :)

Nice video... can´t wait to see more!! I just came back from NZ after a six month trip. I miss your beautiful country, but I´m glad to have my motorcycle again. Greetings from Germany!

Man u're just awesome :')

U are awesome . love from Greece

So I literally learned to wheelie about 3 weeks ago (on a 350excf). And within the first week I was already fender scraping...The way I taught my self how to wheelie was; 1st gear..bring it up real high..hit the breaks..(repeat until hitting the break feels natural)..then start learning balance point..after you have an idea for the balance point, you can start going past it (to fender scrape)... It was VERY easy to learn. I did it on some nice grippy dirt so there would be optimal traction and if I ever fell of the bike, it wouldn't get all scratched up.

Nice work! - Thanks for sharing. :-D

I MUST SAY that a lot of people didn't like your video, honestly your balance point is not perfect but I wanna say thank you because I learned how to wheelie from your video, because I saw properly how to use clutch. i apprecciate your help and i am sure you are a way better in wheelies right now! make one more video now!!!

Thx. Great vid and will give it a go when I can find a nice quiet road. I've got a 690R with wings exhaust but I really like the sound of your exhaust compared to mine. I've got large dbkiller in. Have you taken the dbkiller out or made any other mod?

WW first vid? I really enjoyed it very much... Nice simple demo . I suck at doing wheelies but am going to put your advice to work. Cheers mate ...subbed.

Thanks for this - cheers 👍☮🤘🤘🤘

This is the greatest video ever

Thanks for the how to bro, awesome stuff. Just got the 19 ktm smc r and have been practicing clutching up in 1st gear and making a point to use the back brake. Trying to clutch up in 2nd but 30/35 mph has me spooked a bit. Any further advice? Thanks again

Hey 👋 after you pop it in second and are riding a wheelie can I shift to 3rd without the clutch that’s what I’ve been doing

thanks bro really helped me a lot

nice bike and nice helmet combo ;P

best part of your video was that you played suicide silence in it. and you had a pretty good video. 👍

SUICIDE SILENCE. Nice choice bro. But I must say, ya gotta really beat into someone to control that rear brake. On my GSXR1000 - The power wheelies in first are cool and all, but I'll be at 167km/h doing a power wheelie. In second I can do wheelies around 90km/h with the clutch and I find balance point a lot easier with the feathering of the throttle. Still learning how to control the rear brake but I must say it's definitely a useful tool to bring it back down. Much nicer than dumping the throttle and throwing the rear out! Cool video bro, I'll be tuning in for more!

awsome chers bro

Hi mate, nice video! I have a big problem covering the rear brake with my foot. looks like the pedal is to high and i am struggling to keep my foot on it. have you adjusted your rear brake pedal before doing wheelies?

What a great video wow wow i will suscribe spread your videos. Please keep em coming. DRZRIDER. my pops has a ktm 690 enduro r

"How to powerwheelie" ;)

love the deathcore opening

Can we whellie on heavy bikes or we need light bike and an bike with tire grips.

whenver I try to wheelie on 2nd gear it feels my bike is Choking. Is it normal? or I should giver more gas. It's lifting but not too high.

Next time if you can put subtitle pls, because for french people it's not easy to understand all of what you say, but really good video it help me so much thank's and sorry for my english

What helped me was putting my left food back on the passenger peg if you have one, it helps you know how high you really are.

POST MORE VIDEOS! I want to see how you have progressed

nice video, subscribed

did ya paint the frame under the tank black? looks good and is it much effort to do?

Subbed!

Sorry, i herd the metal & subbed😈

well done mate!!

Nice man

His suit doesn't inspire a lot of confidence, but i kinda trust him. Seems legit.

sweet as bro

After trying for so long, failing to even pop the front wheel up, three little word came into my head "more fu*king gas" and hey ho. cheers WINSTON!!!!

How do you avoid crashing when your front wheel comes down? I've seen a lot of videos where the front tire comes down straight like it's supposed to do, and then they start swirling from side to side really fast. What causes this and how do I prevent it when learning a wheelie?

Nice video bro, but im wondering. Next year i will turn 16 and can take the license for 125cc, but im not sure if i should buy a supermotard or a racing-bike, i would appriciate your answer:)

Oh suicide silence i instant rate video 10/10

Do you use original sproked??

I´m practicing wheelies since half a year now - everytime I ride out. (not real practice, just playing wile riding) The from you called "Balancepoint" doesn´t even look Close to what I´ve seen on many other Videos. Also the fact that your Buddy didn´t film it, is (at least to me) a confirmation of my thoughts.

Well just for The music a like

Nice tut bro. My name is Winston too. XD

Is your camera man on a DR650SE

Have you ever blown a clutch on your 690? How many break in miles did you do before starting to wheelie? I am on my third clutch and am currently breaking it in. :(

Hey I'm new to a 701 husky and was trying to wheelie the other day, how many fingers u using to pull clutch, cause using most of them seems sketchy like you'll go off the back? Great video BTW

does your 690 chug in 2nd below say 17-18mph? I have the evo 1 tune i think. But it chugs kinda bad at low rpm and is the opposite of what you think a big 690 would be like at low rpms.

👊👌🤘

Clutch to get it up? My old WR450 and now KTM 500 bike do not any need viagra to get it up lol, they do power wheelies... Using the clutch to get it up feels way to scary and risky of looping to me... Think I will try using the method other reccomend of keeping one foot at rear break and practice breaking down the wheelies to work up muscle memory first before using clutch to get it down again fast if it gets to high.

try to do your advanced wheelies in 1st gear as your gas is than a bit more twistier you can work your rear brake alot better and gas up again

If you tap the rear brake, do you pull the clutch at the same time? Is it bad for the motor if you dont?

subbed i have an ktm 690 endur r 2016 and have been trying litle power wheelies in 1st gear but i feel they are to inconsistent but im scared to try 2nd gear cuz i need to be in 40-50 k to be able to have the power to power wheelie maby gonna man up and try clutch up. i just feel they are so fast and explosive and comes up so fast i am just scared to 12 clock it and crasch risk ripping up the fueltank like the poor guy on youtube. but i guess i just need to find the baals to do it so i get used to the jolt of the front wheel comming up. Cheers from Norway

hay man hows it goin do u still ride motards iv a husqvarna sms630 love riding getting board of ridding on my own would u be keen to catch up for a ride im local

same principle on a 950? SM-R 😁...I can do 80 in second without trying...so like maybe in 3rd gear??

Upload more vids mate!

When this guy swears it’s so funny to me

Hi there, I hears rumors that the 690 engine might cease due to oil starvation from extended wheelies, is this true? My best wheelie on the enduro r is about 100m

What exhaust protector do you have on the wings?

Love the use of suicide silence:)

man awesome tutorial! It really helped me getting started on the wheelies! Keep it up bro! Make sure you check my channel, i've just uploaded a one hand wheelie video! Congrats from PORTUGAL!

Sadly he didn't make anymore videos he seems like a fucking good commentator

Nice video. Whats the song @ 6:15?

tried to do a long wheelie and i luuped!!

How high do you take the Rpm in 2nd gear till you drop the clutch?? I want to learn wheelies as well, but i am scared that i drop the clutch with to high rpms and i throw my bike away :-D I don't want to do power wheelies, cause i think its better to control with the clutch

Nice I know this spot.Alexander road

Can you do that shifting on a two stroke to?

I have a question. so on the 690 can you not wheelie in first gear at all?

do you need to blip off the gas when shifting without clutch to 3rd gear?

i dont understand the intermediate where he says clutch up to do a wheelie with no clutch. can someone explain

at how many rpm are you releasing the clutch likt 4.5 or 5 ?

Im on a 125cc yamaha xt 125 r i do almost 12 o clocks but im too dumb to shift into second so if i want to shift into secon gear i just shift without the clutch and before that i go back with the throttle?

From 2nd to 3rd You changing without clutch?

did you pop the fork seals?

Winston wheelington from windy wellington

how much gas do you give for a 200 cc ? when I'm moving in 1st gear at about 10-15 kph
