okay, can any body do that trick......i can get over the windscreen and get the front wheel to get off the ground maybe about an inch or so off the ground. it feels as if i'll fall back wards off the bike and the clips on seem to low.....any body got any advise on how to get it all the way up in the air and ride it through out the whole gear(1st gear for now)

Try 2nd gear about 40 MPH. You will have to clutch the piss out of it. You have to get it up right away. Too much weight on the front end to pick it up a little and then throttle it up the rest of the way. I would not do it in first, way to jerky. I cross my legs, and pull myself forward with the backs of my shins. I have my shins on the headlights. Try not to let too much of your leg weight land on the windscreen, it will break the heads off of the plastic screws.
