ive only had my 01 1000 for two months... still getting used to it, my last bike was an 84 interceptor 500... big difference... anyway i want all the info i can get before i just go out there and twist the throttle and hope for the best... if im in second gear at 3500-4000 and twist fairly quick will the front wheel come up??? i would expect that it would is this how i should be starting out or is there a better place to begin?? i waited a long time a spent a lot of money for this bike and id hate to do something wrong a wreck it... i love this bike.

I think you should look at the wheelie 101 sticky. Most of its been covered before.
