Well said! I'm 55 and right there with you. Never desired more to be a better rider than I do right now. My 2 sons ride with me and we have a blast! Keeping us OG's young lol
Rich, you have a gift when it comes to explaining and teaching these techniques! You’re content is top notch! We in the dirt bike community are lucky to have you. I truly hope that the Moto Station and IRC will continue their relationship with you for many years to come. Thanks!
Agreed. His explanations are so complete that it gives a rider complete understanding of the task. Gives enough confidence to try new things, and even more confidence in performing challenging riding maneuvers that a rider already knows how to do. Great instructions for riders, at any level !
Getting back into endurance riding UK . I last rode off road at age 19 I'm 48 now and just rode Spain with dust devil's. . I hope there OK? Flash floods and all. Such an amazing 3 days riding that has made me and friends return to the UK and get our own bikes , And Rich you have set our bar to achieve slow before fast . Here in Kent we have some fantastic skilled riding experiences. And with your videos it's an inspiration. Please say his to mark and his awesome son from a fan . My boy is 6 and I hope to prove an old dad can still learn new tricks!
I've logged about 12 hours of practice on slow wheelies and am finally able to go 20 or 30 feet in total control. Absolute Nervan. Thanks for all the technical advice i used it all. Keep up the good work and ride safe
@@IRCTireUSAMoto I've really enjoyed some of your tires dualsporting. The TR8 is still my tire of choice for riding all over the USA on a DR650, even if it's a bit skinnier than Suzuki specs for their 650 chunkster. 'Ridiculously versatile and a good value...like the ol' DR.
Yeah was going to say that’s not short haha, I find pivot turns on a hill difficult when your flat out touching the ground especially on a cambered slope
I didn't started riding dirt until I was about 40. I'm almost 50 now. The last 10 yrs have been AWESOME! Here in North America, dirt routes from almost coast to coast, between Mexico and Canada, and BDRs in various states are being explored/experienced by dualsport riders. Routes are being explored and shared around the globe now. Ride the world!
What a wealth of knowledge, I can't tell you how much I wished this content was available when I was riding. One thing for certain is that height does make a lot of the skills easier to learn. being 68" on a 34" seat height adds another layer of complexity in learning.
We love you man. I feel like im an expert on slow wheelie already. Just by watching this video many times. You break it down so simply that viewers understood the lesson with full confidence.
My big thing right now is two fold - Confidence as I only have a FE 501 Husky to work with and using my index or middle finger on the clutch as they get TRIED QUICKLY and I am 65, but I am starting with your 10 lessons videos first. Thanks your a great teacher.....
I love how you adjust in detail for short riders, so motivating! and this makes so much more sense to me now! Ofc, I am new in hard enduro so first will work on balance as you showed before! thanks! this is the best chanel ever
If I had to only subscribe to one channel this would be it. Every time I think you’ve covered it all you put out another terrific video. Thank you my friend.
This is great, thank you. 5'9"er here too. Just too short to do the both feet dragging method which I think is the best. This is the gap fill hopefully that will work. Balance point and knowing exactly the throttle response I think is key. Also keeping arms straight hanging off bars instead of instinct of pulling upper body to bars
I have been watching how to wheelie a dirt bike for months now and I could never get it till now this was the most helpful video I have watched can’t wait to try it!
I'm 67 I've been riding since I was 12. I've never been good at wheelies. I'm also a professional boat captain. I'm very good at maneuvering big boats in tight quarters. The reason is a lifetime of practice. One of these videos pointed out you don't get good at ANYTHING without practice. I believe as soon as I get back home, I'm going to get my 1975 Yamaha DT 400 out, find a good place, and start seriously practicing!
I saw the hack of putting your foot behind the back wheel on the really tight bit, genius!! I laughed so hard when you first said you spend so much time off the back lol I was imagining a rider trying wheelies in superman position dragging toes for miles with tongue out :)
Hands down the best skills tips I've been able to find on the youtubes and shot in my backyard or more accurately 5 miles of off-road track from my backyard.
thanks from the Netherlands for a clear explanation better slow wheelie, and hope to see more video from you, greetings from the Netherlands from Mohamed.
I can't believe I never thought of trying to practice this way. Can't wait to try this next time I'm out. The hardest thing to getting the slow wheelie is the practice time you need to master it. If I'm lucky I'll get a good clutch up and get a few seconds of experience from it. At that rate it's taken me forever to feel like I'm progressing. This gives me a clean starting spot that I can build on. Thanks Rich!
Excellent breakdown! You gave me hope to since I am 5’-9” like Trevor! I bought a KX100 to try and work out the fundamentals before trying on my KTM 300; the KX100 helps the confidence level.
Yes, Rich you have a special gift when it comes to teaching. I watch many "How To" YT vids with people trying to explain and or teach different tasks/skills etc. If I were still pursuing a conventional education I would be so lucky to end up with such an articulate, easy to undertand and encouraging instructor. It is teachers like you who make the world a better place because of your skills in keeping students interested in what they are trying to learn. A big thanks from me too! PS. Hope I get a chance to run into you the next time you are in Honolulu and the shtik with Mark Akita (sp?) "Wheelies with the KX 80" was just great! Classic comedy fun but highly instructive!
Your Vid's always motivate me to improve my mediocre capabilities. And even at my age it works 🙂 Thx a lot and keep on motivating the whole community. 👍👍
This is the second video I’ve seen you made about wheelies and it’s the best hands down. Please make a new video pulling everything together. A nice 30 minute video we would love it!
This is the best hack for learning the slow wheelie. Still working on it but have used that feeling of being off the back of the bike in turning around on steep trails.
Cómo siempre Rick, transformas lo complicado en sencillo 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Gracias por tus consejos, mucha veces me ayudaron a mejorar mi conducción. Voy a ejercitar esta técnica. Saludos desde Argentina 🇦🇷
Ive been wanting to work on the slow and short wheelies for enduro application..i wasnt sure exactly the best way to approach it....this video makes it all clear you surely saved me a lot of grief when ot comes to my approach thank you
Great video. The 22 dislikes are power wheelie gravel road riders that never stray to far from the staging area and usually can be seen on crf450’s looking like power rangers
Thank you Rich so much for your videos. I'm a newbie. Was really stoked the other day that I popped a few decent standing start wheelies. I'm gonna stick with this video to bring me forward. Thank you. And I'll need tires soon and be shopping the IRC website.
Rich really enjoy the videos and the way you break it all down! Still have my moto even though I can’t ride now while I recover from a car accident so all I can do is study and lean what I can by watching. Thank you for all the excellent break downs and your honesty is so refreshing!
Hi Rich. I'm doing all practices to clutch control untill here. I have problems wich this ones because I'm riding a Yamaha T7 and it's really heavy but the worst...too high too get down and walk with the front wheel in the air. Any suggestions. Congrats for your chanel and thanks to share this greats videos!!! 👍👍👍👍
Great tips as always, Rich! I’ve been working on moving my left foot to the peg recently. Thanks to this video I now know how far along in the process I am
Excellent stuff! My favourite bike channel as it really inspires and teaches the proper techniques. I have already improved on clutch control, traction and the understanding stuff better just by watching your videos. Currently working on the wheelie 🙌
Found "short" 5'9" comment funny too. 5'8" and shrinking thanks to age and gnarly moto wreck/back surgery. At 53 and pushing hard on moto/Enduro realize these are the skills I need to develop. Great vid, I'm going to try this Hack for sure. Thanks
Ive been riding every weekend for the past 3 weeks, after a 12 year break, only ever just ripped it in an open paddock so learnt nothing but getting the rear out and changing gears. I’m now 26. clutch control getting better. I can get the front wheel up to get me over some logs, banks etc, nothing crazy yet. But I’m just wondering If it takes a long time to master? I can get my wheel up for a wheelie but not high enough to carry me a fair way, should I be getting this fast or is it something that takes a fair while? I feel like I should be able to pivot, slow wheelie with legs off the back for balance/safety. But I don’t really have any open areas to try to practice wheelies, it’s all tight and full of trees. Should I be patient or should I be ripping already? Love your videos rich 🤙
Hi Rich, Love your videos! You are really excellent at presenting the info in a clear and relatable way so thank you!. I'm struggling with getting good distance on my slow wheelie. I can pivot turn no problem, and and walk behind the bike with the front wheel in the air for as long as i want, but as soon my foot goes on to the right foot peg i seem to lose it and ive put a lot of hours in and seem to be stuck at the same point. i feel like im maybe missing some bit of info or i guess i should keep practicing
I’ll actually be doing a how to wheelie Street video coming out soon. But one thing I can say is tire choice and set up on the rear tire makes a huge difference. I’d recommend trying it with a JX8 rear tire. Thanks for the support!
Thank you for these videos, I've watched all of them and am surprised how fast I've gotten better at technical riding. Balance is still where I need the most work, but like you say, practice until you're sick of it and practice some more! Thanks again, can't ask for a better instructor!
Do you guys have a coating on those factory exhausts? Looks more black than usual... mine turns brown/rusty after one ride where we live (no matter how much WD-40 is sprayed on) and it needs wire scrubbed off. Thanks for the video!
Ever consider a Drag Tire for motorcycles? Flat drag slicks, and or Drag Radials would all be welcomed. Something to think about. Thank you. T.S. RACING
Thanks for the excellent technical explanation along with ideal video. Being mainly an adventure tourer, I haven't tried a wheelie in decades...but you have inspired me to try it again on a dirt bike!
Hi Rich! Love your videos. I have a question that I hope you can answer. I've been able to get my bike up while standing behind it, but after a few moments the carb floods and bike dies (2006 TTR250). My question is - Do the modern Beta enduro bikes have this issue with their carbs? Do I need to go the FI route? Thank you for taking the time. You rock!
27 yrs old, intermediate track day rider, no offroad experience. Just bought an old TW200 to start trail riding. Which of your technique videos would you recommend I start with for training myself when just riding to work or around town that can apply to offroad riding? Currently I just slow down to chug myself up and over obstacles which the TW happily does at a crawl. But add any speed >10mph and I bottom the fork immediately (I know it has poo suspension but proper technique can make up for many vehicular shortcomings).
Thanks for the video. Great explanations. This will help me straighten out the slow wheelie. Right now I find myself just doing slow wheelies to the left in circles.
You're a great teacher Rich! Appreciate how you break down the processes and then explain each step... thank you from a fan down under in Australia. Hope you can get down here some time ... Cheers, Simon J.
Just found your channel…SO WELL DONE! I believe I saw a Recluse cover in one of the shots. I have a Recluse…can the things you are teaching be mastered with a Recluse clutch?
At age 59, you and a couple of other sites have inspired me to work much harder at my dirt riding skills. Keep up the great work.
Well said! I'm 55 and right there with you. Never desired more to be a better rider than I do right now. My 2 sons ride with me and we have a blast! Keeping us OG's young lol
I'm 64 and as inspired as ever to become a better technical trail rider. These videos are so helpful!

Yeah was going to say that’s not short haha, I find pivot turns on a hill difficult when your flat out touching the ground especially on a cambered slope

@@IRCTireUSAMoto Quick question, if I don't know how to wheelie, can I learn this technique without knowing how to fast wheelie?
This is some serious shit, that's gonna help 💯
Used to do this w/out thinking. Now that I am riding again after a while (and have to think)…this is perfect. Thanks!
Indeed
Only started riding a couple of months ago at the age of 37, you channel is a gem of a find Rich , big thanks all the way from Ireland

its fun if you are baked before hand trust me youll zone out on wheelies and they just get better real quick i do it on my klt160 trike and ytm200”s
old dogs, new tricks. Time to hang it up, gramps.
I learned to ride on a DT 250, that 400 is a beast. If you haven't, You should try a modern KTM.
Thanks rich that totally makes sense i have done similar trick to do a 180 wheelie but still cant do slow straight ones am going to try this cool.

Just found your channel…SO WELL DONE! I believe I saw a Recluse cover in one of the shots. I have a Recluse…can the things you are teaching be mastered with a Recluse clutch?
Thanks for watching. That being said No. Auto clutches do not teach you proper clutch form.
