Default Clutch

I recently bought a 2003 ZX6R, but I don't feel that the power is there from the clutch. I have a problem getting the bike to wheelie. The only time I can get the front tire off the ground is when I'am in high rpm's in first. Any suggestions?

Why the clutch, is it slipping? Not hooking up? What has been your previous experience with wheelies versus displacement? Medium-smaller cc bikes will need the revs to hoist you.

Not sure man, but learn your ride. Good luck and welcome to KF.

I don't have any previous experience with wheelies but I have let a couple of my friends drive it and they say that I'm not getting as much out of the bike as I should. I checked the air filter and that was clean. Is there any way to adjust the clutch other than by the handle?
