[xfox250x]

I have a 250ex and I can aride wheelies pretty good but i can't change gears ive been tryin to but i cant ne one have ne tips

you can try it without using the clutch just go back to far on purpose and then let off the throttle and shift with out pulling in the clutch. When you let off the throttle the engine compression starts to bring it back down. Thats the way I do it at least.

Sorry nausty but your wrong on this one. Fox has a 250EX that has an auto clutch and they are a pain because the lever has to go up twice as much as a 400 to shift. To shift fast enough on your quad to keep a wheelie is going to be hard, but get the front end up and shift as fast as you can. Thats all I can tell you.

keep your foot under the shifter and make sure your at the balance point when u shift

make sure your at the balance point, let off the gas and shift as fast as you can.

My friend Dominique has shifted while doin wheelies on my 250ex and he dumped it backwards. It was Halarious(*SPELLING?)

In my opinion the 250EX is the EASIEST quad to ride a wheelie on. I ride my wifes through all gears as far as there is land. I can sit, stand up on the grab bar, put my legs on the handlebars or just about anything else. Just dont be afraid. If you go too far the grab bar will keep you from flipping over, unless your in 4th or 5th gear!!

I agree with most of the other guys in that you should try to get the machine as far back on the balance point as you can and then ease of the throttle and shift keeping the machine on the balance point. There are places where I have ridden wheelies into fith gear, but be careful cause falling off at that speed hurts a tad. I would try not shifting out of 2nd or 3rd until you learn where the balance point is and the only way to do that is to stand the machine straight up, but dont worry, the back brake will set you down.
