yeah deej, i can get the front wheel up at least a foot right now by just snapping the throttle in first gear and pulling and leaning back a little...so i know some of you are wrong when you say with the mods that deej suggested it would be impossible to get it all the way...deej is right, its all about weight distribution and body positioning...so i think for the time being (over the next couple months) im just gonna go with a muzzy or two brothers, do the re-jetting thing, open the airbox, smog removal/free mods, and the 13T front sprocket...when im ready to do the free mods is there a thread that has step by step instructions/pictures on how to do all the FREE mods ya'll speak of?

This kind of wheelie? The bike will not just be able to effortlessly stand up. Like you said, all about body positioning, pulling on the bars, and such..
The wheelieing ease that you first spoke of gave me of the impressioin of pretty much what you said. "Snap it and it stands up", no pulling, pushing, jumping, sitting on the back fender...

Exactly. I weigh 200 lbs. I bet once I grow a pair and lean back and pull I can wheelie in 1st and 2nd with ease too. But to just sit there normally, crack it open and wheelie? No way.

Ha, with about the amount of coaxing the klx up in 1st gear without clutch, it's probably about the same as getting the 525 to stand up in 6th without clutch at about 65 mph..
Just get one of those.. haha
