The bike weighs a sight more than even the chunkiest monkey, it's the throttle makes it wheelie. Snap it closed then open again and it will bounce the chassis and bring it up.

ahh ok cheers guys, if im doing about 15mph in 1st then rev it to around 8-9000 rpm dump the clutch and then slip in as it comes up i got get quite far with it.

i have been looking at youtube for it too. someone going a decent speed just stands up and i think he pops the cutch and it just comes striaght up. it says that he is 3rd or 4th gear aswell :/

Its just practice. I have pointy s stock gearing with and it will clutch up in 2nd easily. Accelerate hard in second to 30 with **** at back of seat slip clutch n she'l pop right up. Its easier with less fuel for obv reasons. You wont have a problem with oil starvation if you keep it topped up and dont wheelie for miles.
