We're here in the beautiful Chilesan Tiago. We have a free day today so I thought that we're going to shoot with headlands. A little bit different vlog this time. So I read a lot of comments on my YouTube channel and there was plenty of requests that I should explain you how to make a wheelie with a low CC bike. So with my 250 Duke, a standard one, a stock bike, I'm going to show you how to make a wheelie. I'm going to try it to make it as simple as possible so you can understand it and try it back at home. Okay, let's go try to make some wheelies. Oh, I forget something really important. My gear. First, safety gear, helmet, gloves, knee protectors, chest protectors, back protectors as much as possible to keep you safe. You never know when you crash, also when you're learning. So, but we're going to try to make it safe. And second thing really important is to not practice this on the street, but on an empty parking lot. So there is not cars you can crash into it or they crash into you. Safety, safety, safety. When you have these two points, then you can continue with the tutorial and learning how to wheelie. So everybody has his own way how to explain how to make a wheelie. So I'm going to give it the best to try to explain it as easy as possible. So there is one big difference between making a wheelie with a big CC bike and a small CC bike as this 250 Duke here. On the big bikes you have more power for sure and it's easier to pop a wheelie. At the small CC bike there is a little bit more feeling into it and you need to pull a little bit harder when you try to pop a wheelie. So what a lot of stunt riders are doing when they learn first tricks, they usually take a little bit air out out of the tire. So that's exactly what I'm going to do now. Also for you important to catch a little bit or have a little bit more balance while learning the wheelie. Okay, I did it by my feeling but you shouldn't go under 1.0 bar because then the bike gets a little bit too unstable. One of the most important things is the timing. Timing of three things. First clutch, second gas around midwrefs and covering the rear brake if something goes wrong. And everything you do in the first gear moving slowly and then trying to catch this timing and pull up the bike with the own body weight and do the timing. Clutch, gas and covering the brake. So that was in theory. So let's go now to the practical side. We are now at the exercise popping of wheelie. So we are here trying to catch the moment of pressing the clutch, gas it, releasing the clutch, lean back and make a wheelie. So the typical mistake what usually everybody is doing while they are learning wheelie is they are leaning on the front and pulling the bike with the hands. Which is not okay. The right way to do is lean a little bit on the back, pull up the bike with the own body weight. So while clutching up you lean on the back and it's much easier to pick up the bike. Here you can see I'm pulling the bike with my own hands and leaning on the front but I cannot pick up the front wheel. And this is the difference when you sit a little bit back lean back and transform the whole body weight on back of your bike and clutch it. This is what I call step by step popping of wheelie. So this is the safest way my opinion how to learn a wheelie. In this process you are learning the moment when you pull the clutch, rev it in the mid-range and cover the brake. And this point of learning the timing is the most important. Later on also when you are doing a wheelie and once you learn this you are going to always be able to wheelie whichever bike you want. So the next step is already for advance. Let's call stunters. So the next step is catching sweet spot. So called balance. I'm fling with the gas and catching the balance while wheeling the bike. I'm covering the rear brake just in case I'm going to gas it too much and I need to bring back the front wheel safely. That is what I call a sweet spot and this is the best spot to be on the bike I mean. What we shouldn't forget is also not only how to make a wheelie and pop a wheelie but how to also slowly bring back the front wheel down to the asphalt because of two reasons. If you are too fast on the wheelie and you suddenly slam the front wheel you can lose the control. The front wheel starts wobble and the whole bike and then you apply on the asphalt. Also you can destroy the front fork ceiling and this you also don't want to do it. Yeah this you're going to learn by the popping a wheelie exercise. Tutorial vlog done. Yeah I hope I could teach you all the basics in a safe way and I can see now in the future a lot of popping wheelies of my rockers. You know what send me some videos of you how you make wheelies and I'm going to try to teach you through commenting on your video. You can find the email in the description of this video. Search for it send me your videos. I'm going to help to improve your style of how to properly do a wheelie and that was it of our not really regular vlog. So let's continue now with the regular one. Okay we are back to regular vlogging. We are here now at KTM Chila store. The reason why we are here tonight is we are launching the new dukes. So they throw a big party and I'm going to surprise the people with my little show a short show. Let's see how this is going to work. Let's go talk a little bit with the people and ask them how they like the new duke. Quick question. How do you like the new duke? Perfect. Yeah perfect. The sign is very beautiful. Do you like the new design? Yes. How do you like the new duke? It comes up. Yeah. Okay it comes up. We have thumbs up. It's very aggressive. It's so much fun. More aggressive. Super duke. Very good. Very good. What do you say about the new duke? We have the first cut there. So we have only good comments about the new duke. We are working hard like two years to develop these bikes with the guys in the development department. They are really working hard on it and to travel on the other side of the world and see the people are really loving the new design and the new setup. It's really motivating and thumbs up to the guys in the development department. Rock and roll. I am today a designer of the new duke. And this life for the next one. Watch out! We are the best. You only got one life. That's why. One life. Over and over. One life. Watch me. I will be the best.
