So at what RPM do we flick our clutch?

(bitabur @ Sep. 05 2007,16:10) I had mine lift up just before the limiter in 3rd a couple weeks ago... I wasn't sure how that was possible... I'm heavy enough that mine only power wheelies in 1st... normally I can pin second all the way to redline without it lifting up.  I must not have been tucked in enough.  

WOW a power wheelie in 3rd?   I've tried clutching it up in 3rd with no luck, And I also have 16/42 gears.

That's impressive, I had to add a turbo for mine to come up in 3rd.

I think I was leaned far back (taking it easy) + too high up (wind force @ about 130ish) + hit some kind of small bump in the road... because I'm a heavy guy.

Like I said, normally I can go WOT in 2nd and it won't come up. With a full tank + leaned forward I can go WOT in 1st and pretty much keep it down.

Oh, the tank was practically on vapors (<1 gal) at the time... that always helps.

No tricks needed for the Busa to defy gravity

I have to constantly fight mine and it still wheelies occasionally.

No clutch flicking here. I have a friend on an older gixxer that does enough flicking for both of us. He goes through rear tires, fork tubes/seals, clutches, trannies, bodywork, and chains/sprockets faster than I go through tanks of gas
