The steps I took to learn how to wheely

1. Find an open field
2. Find the first gear powerband where the front end wants to pop up
3. Just keep practicing in 1st gear until you find your bikes balance point and once you find it its all fun from there

as far as the rear brake goes as long as you have good throttle control you won't need it, its hard to flip the bike if you are carefull and if you do flip it will just teach how far is to far atleast it did me.

hint- buy a six pack rack to help you at first it will keep you from flipping

just bring your quad up in first gear to a nice above idle cruise. try to shift your seating position to where your weight is a little more on the back tires and roll into the gas. alot of people will try to fight it back down, it's natural you have to supress this reaction and let the front come up try and try again you'll get it. don't start out trying to pop the clucth you will end up on your head.

Be ware. Get really acquainted with EBAY.
Wheelying is very fun but before I had it down pact.
I kept on bending my wheely bar.
I didn't know any better so I kept buying stock wheely bars.
They suck for a lack of a better word.
Now I have after market bars even though I
rarely hit them now, they don't bend as easy.
All it takes is practice. This will eliminate fear and perfect your skill.
Good Luck!

Whatever you do, don't do a wheelie on your knees. You dont have acces to the brake as easy and you can really hurt yourself
