My name is Rok Bagoros and I am a pro freestyle streetbike rider. I began riding bikes when I was 17 and turned pro after 4 years when I signed a contract with KTM Factory. Since then my life changed and I started to travel the world to perform my freestyle live shows and competitions. On my channel I try to show you how my life looks like on and of the bike.
I performed in Asia, South America, Europe and Middle East on the mayor events like MotoGP, Red Bull Air Race, DTM, Salon de Automovil Chile, Internatonal moto expo, EICMA, etc. On the other side I have been a stunt double for different artist like Robbie Williams and Neisha. My motosport idols are: Ken Block, Travis Pastrana, Chris Pfeiffer.

Good video. May I add one tip for the wheelie learner? Please feel free to disagree.... you are better at wheelies than I. When initially lifting the front wheel, don’t ride it out. Every time, use the rear brake to ‘bring the front wheel down gently ’ (regardless of it coming down on its own). This will make using the rear brake with the wheelie natural and instinctive, rather than thinking you will use it when you panic from going up to high. Most don’t, and loop it because of fear and not used to using the rear brake when up in the air. So IMO, get used to using it every time you wheelie and become one with the rear brake for modulation. Good luck to you all!

[@laryangel4082]

Good

[@RokBagorosStuntrider]

I agree with you 1000% and am sad that I did not mention this in my tutorial 🤔

[@MotoNordico]

That is indeed s great tip! I've kept the foot over the rear brake since I started practising wheelies almost a year ago, but sadly I didn't start to actually use it until last week so now I struggle to remember to keep using it.

[@jorgeivanbritocanul4293]

@rokbagoros. Congrats for the vlog for me a helmet should have 3 points. 1: Safety (certifications, different materials, strapping, view field) 2: Comfort (fitting, sun protection, ventilation, communication system compatibility) 3: Meet your style (match your ride, stand out, communicate ideas )

This is simply the best how to wheelie video I ever seen, great stuff

[@Baldsohard365]

Great video. You took your time and were very specific and informative. You were the first person that I’ve ever seen talk about leaving 2 to 3 fingers on the grip when you clutch. I have done very little practice, but when I did I assumed that that was the safest way to do it. You’re the only person to ever mention it though. 👍🏼

[@jackpalmer7886]

Have wheelied an Indian 999 cc scout ,first gear 2500 rpm quick clutch baby wheely lots of power b careful u don't get scalped

[@syedumerzubair8384]

For me the best helmet would be a modular helmet because my use is not too much of racing it is daily commuting from 1 place to another in the city and weekend rides. I love the way modular helmets function. When u need them they become a full face helmet and when u need to drink water or standing in a red light for ventilation you can again make it half face. Then it protects you from the sun with a additional goggles apart from the visor. And also the hat kind of a design on the top of the helmet protects from the scorching sun rays that direction fall in the eyes. Modular helmets are the way to go. They are best of all worlds. Except if your use is hardcore trac racing.

[@frequencysurfer2025]

Finally a video that has the best detailed knowledge of the process of the wheelie, thank you so much, from Vancouver Canada. I have a New Hypermotard and your info of turning the settings off was a big help because the sensitivity is never the same. Sometimes it feels too choppy with power surges. Unfortunately a birds eye video view of someone's hands with the timing of the clutch and throttle action.

[@DarrenStarr]

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 01:18 🏍️ When learning to wheelie a big street bike, choose a safe location like an empty parking lot or a training facility, never practice on public roads. 01:47 🧤 Safety gear is crucial when learning wheelies. Wear protective gear, including a helmet, gloves, motorcycle jacket, knee protectors, and suitable boots. Avoid thick motocross boots for better foot brake control. 02:16 🛠️ Prepare your bike for easier balance by reducing rear wheel pressure (up to 1.5 bar) and adding protective accessories like crash bobbins and crash cages. 03:56 🏍️ To control a wheelie, practice using the rear brake. Perform exercises like tight figure eights using only the foot brake to build control. 06:02 🏍️ Disable electronic riding aids like ABS and traction control on newer bikes for smoother wheelie attempts. Use the rain riding mode for a less twitchy throttle response. 07:11 🏍️ Begin with small wheelie attempts using the clutch, throttle, and body position. Focus on the angle rather than the length of the wheelie. 08:42 🏍️ Aim for the balance point in a wheelie, where the bike feels weightless. Maintain steady throttle, correct with smooth throttle movements, lean back, and use the foot brake for control. 10:21 🏍️ If you lose balance in a wheelie, avoid excessive throttle to correct it. Return to a smooth starting point and try again, focusing on gradual improvement. 11:14 🏍️ Land a wheelie smoothly to protect your front forks and avoid tank slappers. Add throttle just before touching the ground to ensure a gentle landing. 12:10 🏍️ The techniques learned for wheelies can be applied to different types of motorcycles, including off-road bikes. 13:37 🎁 Participate in a giveaway to win a Scorpion ADX1 helmet by following Scorpion Sports on Instagram, sharing the vlog, and commenting on what features you think make a good helmet. 15:30 🏍️ Consider joining the Wheelie Academy to receive one-on-one wheelie training and overcome the fear of wheelies.

[@tomek87rsk]

Super cool video! Regarding the helmet, after having some experience it comes to the point that I need: -good field of vision -drop down sunvisor -lightweight -and modular helmet is so much better on the daily basis.

This is why I never buy bikes from younger people or stunters. Non the less great video and the best how to on wheelies yet!

[@miclaquian1258]

Choosing a good helmet is, know your size, must be fit, and to protect your self without getting any injury when riding long distance or short distance.

[@grey5135]

If we are being honest here I'd have to say doing the wheelie is easy anyone can do it on a super duke just twist the throttle and it will wheelie😂. It's controlling the wheelie that takes the skill 🤓

[@DANTHETUBEMAN]

They come with a front tire just to get rolling and for parking other then that's it's a dedicated wheelie machine.

[@carlosoruna7174]

Ohh a low feared Ktm. Easy.

[@lomparti]

@@sonny9608 Ya definitely dont want to be learning to wheelie on a 20k bike, best thing to do is buy a cheap beater bike with no papers or even a cheap dirt bike and practice on empty parking lots or offroad so you get a hang for the balance point.

[@mastertek383]

That Super duke is just nasty everywhere. No revs required.

[@Bigdawwwgg]

@@sonny9608 get a 636 or f4i stunt it out idk why you would wanna wheelie a 20k bike youll get no where doing that

[@CKwoi]

Perfect helmet - on every helmet I've owned, I've had to put a strip of electical tape at the top of the visor so it works like a makeshift sunshade. Considering I don't want a sail on my forehead while on the highway and the built-in sun visor isn't dark enough for direct sunlight, that's the only way to do it. So there, the perfect helmet would have either a 2-stage built in sun visor, an external visor that has a super dark strip at the top or, the best but most expensive thing, the top third of the visor be photosensitive so it goes darker the more sunlight hits it. Also, shared on FB and subscribed on IG :) Samo tak dale, fejst fajn videe mas!

[@MotoMirius]

Nice looking ADV helmet there - that is my choice for a street helmet - a mix of street and off road that works even at higher speeds. I learnt the hard way that smoothing out the landing is very important with road bike forks - not very comfortable and not good for the forks (and not the way to impress the girlfriend). I still aim to do the wheelie academy, but still waiting to be able to travel.

[@ProfessorShahzada]

nice to hear from you and sharing you some good tips...

[@joshjefferson2360]

Fantastic videos. Best helmet for adv by far, hands down the XD4. Hand laid by a master helmet maker, and EVERY shell (not just a batch test) is inspected by TWO different inspectors. Shoei helmets have saved my live but if you want the best, Arai is the answer. Scorpion just got ripped off on this helmet design by HJC. If you want an adv modular though, the at-950 is a good choice. Keep in mind, sacrificing safety for functionality is never a smart choice.

[@mykheaton]

Thank you, Rok. This is a very useful teaching video!! Very informative and helpful. Could you please do another video and teach us how to do a wheelie with standing postition. Is there any tricks need to be paid attention to when we do wheelies standing on the footpegs?

[@RokBagorosStuntrider]

Great idea, if you do a standing wheelie you have two option to keep it under control and nit crash. 1) on leg on the seat and the right foot on the brake 2) or both legs on the passenger pegs but for that you need a left hand brake to not flip the bike

[@AndresWANG]

@@RokBagorosStuntrider Thank you for your detailed explanation and reply. Yes, I have seen your stunt videos in which you demonstrated how to do that. Maybe I did not make myself clear enough, my question is how to do a standing position wheelie while you put your foot on rider's foot peg, this means you put your left foot on the left foot peg for the rider and your right foot on the right foot peg for the rider. I saw some people do this with their ADV or Sports bike. Can this be done on street bikes, such as DUKE 390？Any particular point needs to be paid attention to? Thank you and have a good day!
