well first off please do this in a safe place like a mall parking lot or some thing the from a roll chirp the throttle hard and let off then lean back and hit it hard one more time this has to be done fast but you will get it. A blade is a heavy bike I just got ride of mine for an RC51 but belive me they will bring the front tire up real quick. and if you tire is brand new well i hope you have good insurance cause it will not stick well and well i guess you wanted to know how to get it UP so i will let you figure out how to get it DOWN cleanly

My XR200R has bald tires and can wheelie. It's only 17.8 HP and i'm 250+ Lbs

Do a power wheelie. Right at the start of the power band, snap the throttle open and lean back.

yeah but wheelin a roadie is a little different to a dirt bike completly different power

like i said can wheelie a dirt squirter ^^^^^^^^^(btw those pics are of my 04' crf 450 not hte 05' that was in my other post with my trx )

and thatnks for the advice randylamarr it worked a tread got the front wheel up abit just gotta get used to controling it so ill post a few pics of a wheelie soon or me on my a$$ with a damaged blade

But the same general concept.

let's hope for the former and not the later. Nice wheelies BTW, I'm still trying to get a hang of keeping it up there. I can power wheelie for a short distance, but still lack the confidence to keep it up. First experiance on a dirt bike ended badly for me in a wheelie, I admit it has me a little jaded on the idea. It didn't help that it was on a jacked up KX250 though....

on a dirtsquirter its easy as if ya want any advice gimme a yell

im still tryin to come to terms with the new center of gravity etc. and actually getting the bike up easy instead of erratically so as it is easier to control i imagine once i find the balance point as with a dirtbike ill be doin 2km wheelies again
