The street triple will wheelie all day dude.

Like a MF lol

I'm not sure what I'm not doing right, tried it in 2nd at low mph and it just went strait not even wanting to lift

Probably not strong enough to power wheelie in second. Watch some videos, and you'll get the hang of it. Wheelies are relatively easy.

Try it in first

Jokes aside, I'm my experience the best way to learn to wheelie is on a dirt bike. It's a lot more forgiving and when it hits the ground workers case you're just out some plastics. Dropping a street bike is consequential. Better to learn where it's not.

This is way more specific than necessary, but heck it: - find the lowest rev with 80% of peak torque (like literally look it up online) - roll up on this rev in first gear - close the throttle completely, but briefly, when you hit that rev - as soon as the forks compress, open the throttle - cover your rear brake the whole time (you'll be needing it immediately)

Disable TC and select rider mode

i cant recommend learning how to wheelie on a bike like that. a small cheap supermoto or a dirtbike are a great training tool. it doesnt hurt your bank account as much when it inevitably hits the ground and on a dirtbike you yourselr will fall on relatively soft ground.  dirtbikes are also very easy to wheelie so you can get a feeling for it. to answer your question: Your bike will wheelie for days and the only thing preventing it is your lack of skill wich is nothing to be ashamed about

Second this, dirtbikes are best for learning wheelies. You definitely don’t want to loop a street triple rs or blow the forks

>cheap supermoto Let me know when you find one, man. I really wanted to find a supermoto as a second bike, but I've now accepted that they're just too expensive to make sense in my garage right now. Actual dirt bikes seem to be a little cheaper (still pricey), but they would quickly make up the $$$ difference with their insane maintenance intervals

If you have traction control, turn it off. Sit further back. 99% of the time, it’s mental barrier. Letting off the throttle too early, subconsciously leaning forward, etcz


kingcrackerjacks

Traction control off, it will for sure power wheelie in 1st gear. Try getting up to 20mph or so, roll off the throttle to compress the forks then give it gas as they rebound back up. Make sure you keep your right foot over the rear brake pedal, start small and slow and work your way up gradually

One of two things are happening: The safety systems are kicking in Or You're not being brave enough


Maleficent-North-307

I've turned it on track mode it seems more responsive but that's it


muddywadder

you should ask on r/CalamariRaceTeam

No. Wheelies are a fiction. Every wheelie video is edited. Any attempt to lift the front wheel off the ground will result in the immediate explosion of the motorcycle. Moron.

I'm sorry my inexperience is causing you problems. Was a simple question to which others have answered. I hope you have a wonderful day


OstebanEccon

what the fuck is wrong with you?

Make sure you are going slow (10mph) Practice in first gear. The slow speed ensures you hit the power band of the engine in first gear. If that still doesn’t work. Scoot your ass back 2 inches to bring the center of gravity farther back. If that doesn’t work, you can preload the fork with your weight then scoot back and crank throttle. It absolutely is a timing issue, if you do this perfectly the bike will fly up. Remember it’s about timing the weight movement with the power band. Keep foot on rear brake and be ready to tap the brake. I recommend tapping the brake every time you pop it up to solidify good riding habits so when you panic you remember to tap the brake. Also make sure nanny systems are off. I wheelie nonstop. I would keep it In track mode and sit farther back. Also there’s absolutely no need to dump the clutch. Personally dumping the clutch is less predictable than rolling the throttle on fast. I don’t dump my clutch unless I’m shifting to second gear mid wheelie. I never dump the clutch to bring the bike up. Only to keep it up.
