keep the rpms kinda low in second and find a bump or somthing and nail it when u hit the bump and the front end should come up. once you get good youll be able to work the throttle doing it and shift gears.

he should be able to pull it right up in second gear without finding a bump, i wouldnt find a bump personally dont worry about if you cant just put it in second gas it, lean back ( dont use clutch to rev it, ) and just keep on the gas and shift to 3rd once u get going

Just punch the gas 1,2nd and I can even pop mine up in 3rd with a good yank on the bars and some gas. In 1,2 gear you should have no problem I like 2nd myself not as snappy as 1st and easier to controle. I can't hold them verry long yet but I have no problem getting it up though lol

Popping the clutch can't be that hard on it. It's harder to get balanced if you pop it, than if you just nail it imo. If your just starting, you might stand up, and put your left foot on the top of grab bar, and right by the brake just in case. It is easier to get balanced, and you can ride them forever. After you get better, sit down and try it. I just go real slow in second, then nail it, and feather the throttle. Works just fine. Good luck!

it works very well if u jus let out the clutch fast w/o droppin or poppin it nd if u do it correctly u should com up and b able 2 hit rev limiter and jus shift from there but u gotta sit up on the seat so u dont flip

you want the best answer get a white brothers e series exhaust, k&n filter, jet kit, and mild engine work, slight over bore, higher compresion and a cam then 4th gear get about half throtle pull up and punch it...4th gear wheelie down the road up a hill

i wouldent do that unless you dont want a trans
first you would either put it in 1 2 or 3 depending on your weight and strength than while your going pretty slow and low RPMs let go of the gas preload you rear shock and hit the gas and lean back while pulling back you start to get the hang of it

if you cant wheelie on a 300ex after riding it for a while you neednt be riding! :macho

nah its pretty easy tho, super smooth balance point. Slow wheelies are easier if you sit down and pop the clutch in 1st from a dead stop but if you want to shift and build up speed start in 2nd, dont give it gas just let it chug the pin it and pull back. It almost directs itself to the balance point every time this way.

try this in first sit back gas it no need to pop the clutch, then let it rise to just past the balance point pull in the clutch shift up to second, ride in second until almost reving out then again get to the balance point and shift up...the highest gear ive gotten into is 4th...make sure u have your foot near the brake incase u go to far back

if you weighted 500lbs you could but i dout any one could pull a wheelie in 5th gear the only way is to ride a wheelie in third gear than switch to fourth while still riding a wheelie and same as fith

how hard is it to bring one up in 4th?

go down the road lor rpms in third then stand up pull in the clutch rev it up dump the clutch pull back a little get balaning and then shift if ya want. check out www.stuntlife.com. They have a quad stunt forum they would be more than happy to give some pointers.

Hold the cluctch in, rev it up in first gear as high as you can and then quickly let go of the clutch.

Put a FST330 kit in it. With the stock swinger, you'll be asking how do I keep my ATV from wheelieing.. lol.

well xx3003 smart ***** racers dont dump it in first they ease it out in 2nd or even 3rd to get maximum traction...i have minor engine work and can rip mine up in forth but never managed to get it into fifth...in forth it just like power wheelies like a motorcycle i dont think even starting in 3rd the quad would have enoguh power to keep it up that high into fifth...now if you do the grab bar wheelie thats the only real way to do it in fifth...i can start in first and get to 4th gear but even down the road i never made it into fifth...

Ok, first off, popping the clutch will not kill your tranny or clutch. It isnt nessecarily good for it. I don't know many racers that slowly let out the clutch:rolleyes: :rolleyes: . I know I dump mine when getting the holeshot.

wtf , who carefully lets out the clutch when they race huh ? you have no idea what your talking about

My friend has a 300ex with just a pipe airfilter and jet kit and you can just be riding in 2nd gear and pull in the clutch lean back and gas it and it will do a wheelie or if you got the right kind of traction you can be in 3rd ridin then pull in the clutch and lean back and floor it and it will do a wheelie

ever heard of dirt wheels mag...well in one of the latest issues they explained how to properly pull the holeshot in second and third gear..and you dont just dump the clutch you let it out a little slower to gain maximum traction..aka not popping a wheelie and not spinning your tires but you all new that right...that a little slipping friction doesnt get you anyware its physics

450Redrider5
10-24-2005, 12:24 PM
Ok but where talking about wheeling not gettin the holeshot

To answer the origional question.

From a slow roll in 2nd gear, move your butt back toward the grab bar as far as you can.. and give the quad some gas. The short wheelbase of the 300 should have no problem coming up, unless your in wet grass.

well i used to dumping the clutch until my buddy lost his second gear in his tranny and mine when shifting down into first makes a rather odd clunk noise so im gunna have to say keep the poping of the clutch to a minimum. i really dont care its your quad. as long as you keep paying honda for stuff your gunna break, i can keep the company i prefere buying quads from
