hi i just got a crf70 and cant pull up a wheelie on it i can put my feet down and then once it gets up i can ride it with my feet on the pegs but i cant pull it up cause i weigh 100 pounds but i orderd a 10 tooth bigger back sprocket and was wondering if u think this will hep or should i get somthing else i dont have much money because i have to mow yards for money but if you think of somthing that will help me pull them up but i can ride them so i dont need like a handbrake or anything

just get some more seat time and it will come..trust me..whatever you do, dont do fagdrags. its a bad habit

crf50187 · 10-15-2009, 07:25 PM

yes more seat time will help dramatically just practice a lot

Brink70 · 10-15-2009, 07:50 PM

^^^ yes practice a lot. You gota know when to give gas and when to pull back...

110boy · 10-16-2009, 06:20 AM

but is 9 bigger on the back way too much should i just get 1 smaller on the front

codeman268 · 10-16-2009, 08:48 AM

I wouldn't mess with the gearing until you can learn it with stock. Also, handbrakes are a life saver sometimes.

Do what the others said about bringing it up and you find theres no need for different gearing.

rc164racer · 10-16-2009, 09:09 AM

Are you doing 1st or second gear wheelies?

lordhunglo · 10-16-2009, 12:33 PM

leave it stock mang...
once you get da timing on throwing your weight backwards, pulling back on the bars, and giving is gas, you'll bring her up no probs mang...

crf50187 · 10-16-2009, 01:47 PM

yeah leave the gearing stock I have used alot of gearing for wheelies and stock seems to be the best

monaghan · 10-16-2009, 01:49 PM

practice, and a 10 tooth bigger rear sprock is a huge difference!

110boy · 10-18-2009, 04:47 PM

okay too alll my problem is not riding the wheelie its just pulling them up and too everyone saying they way more than me and can wheelie their 50 has the totally wrong idea more weight on a smaller bike makes it easier but thanks for the replies n e way also i returned the back sprocket and got a 1 tooth smaller front sprocket because the 70 has no torqe stock gearing and im not woried about reving out because i can shift while doing a wheelie thanks for the replies keep em coming

R3CKL3SS · 10-18-2009, 06:25 PM

just sit far back and pull up and gas it

PitRacerVince · 10-18-2009, 10:49 PM

I didnt even know they made sprockets that big, but PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE!

808micah702 · 10-18-2009, 11:11 PM

39t rear sprocket for a little more torque, and like the others said, you gotta know when to gas it then lean back and throttle it. cover your rear brake too

Brink70 · 10-19-2009, 09:28 AM

exactly what I said before and he said^^^. You gota know when to gas it and pull back on the bike. Sit further back on your seat also. If that dosent help try practicing a wheelie going up a hill to get the front tire off the ground easier.

PitRacerVince · 10-19-2009, 03:36 PM

i keep forgetting ur on a 70 and I gotta admit I havent ridden a stock 70 too much but from wut I recall they r a pain to get up w/o looping it. u really gotta find ur balance point especially @ ur weight its gonna take sum xtra effort and practice. GOOD LUCK!

PitRacerVince · 10-19-2009, 03:40 PM

U do any of the lil mods to get that free power thats in ur bike? Porting n air box elminating n such maybe a +2 sprocket dont get carried away.

codeman268 · 10-19-2009, 03:53 PM

I dont understand, you can ride a wheelie but you can't bring the bike up. I figured those two would go hand in hand.

Fiveflat · 10-19-2009, 04:04 PM

Especially if you only weigh 100#
You should be flippin' that bike over on top of you.
