How To Wheelie:
To start your wheelie with a sport or hi-performance
quad, pull in the clutch, shift into first or second, rev it up to around
3/4 throttle, sit back, and pop the clutch. Once you start getting close
to the balance point, you can use your arms to slightly push or the pull
the front end to the right spot, as well as using the clutch and the throttle.
If your quad is always pulling to the right or the left when you’re doing
a wheelie, one of your tires has lower air pressure than the other.
Once you have the front end up in the air, the next step is to find the
"balance point" of the machine. On most quads it’s a point where the quad
feels like it can balance on the two rear tires without falling forward
or rearward, with you staying put on the back of the seat. Keep it in
this position by using both the clutch and the throttle to control the
power, and tap on the rear brake to push the front end down slightly if
you feel like you’re tipping over backwards.
Once you can keep the quad at the balance point, you can theoretically
wheelie forever.
To get an auto-clutch quad into a wheelie, depress the foot shifter down
but don’t let it pop up yet. Then give the quad about half thottle, let
the foot shifter pop up into first and at the same time pull up on the
bars. Get your weight back, find the balance point, and off you go.
