Don't slam the throttle shut once the front comes up. The front will come up, then you back off on the throttle a bit and it'll start to go down, give it a bunch more gas to bring it back up and click into second if you want to ride it out, or give it a little bit of gas (progressively slighlty rolling on the throttle till the front touches) and set it down nice and soft.. it'll save you fork seals too

If your bike is under a 1000 to bring it up in second or third, you will have to compress the shocks when you pop the clutch, also learning to pop the clutch will help you pop wheelies in second and third, if you only learn to power wheelie, you wont be able to get it up in higher gears

Just because your bike can’t do a power wheelie don’t knock it, Most of the time I just power wheelie then shift once then I got plenty of revs to work with.

I had my buddy doing some slow ones and 12's around a parking lot on mine and he raised my idle speed. Does this have any advantage...and what should I raise it up to?

i heard 03 zx6rs are good for wheelies, they have a really light front end, my friend used to be able to lift it up by hand(not moving of course)

in 2nd gear at about 40mph pull in the clutch until it hits about 10,000 then drop the clutch and up you'll go.
