For some reason i feel like it is harder for an 05 600 to pull up bec. the front end is very heavy........i have clutched it up in 2nd gear going about 40 mph and it only comes up to about knee high....i am guessing i need to gas it up a lil more or i have to lean back more..... I dont Help PLeasE :headscrat

Would a 2k5 600 be able to easily (well I know not easily) lift up the front without changing the sprocket? When I get mine I'm probably only going to put exhaust and a filter and that's probably it for performance. Will that be enough?

Yes, the bike will easily lift the front wheel in 1st, 2nd, 3rd and not so easily if 4th (the rider may have some problems but thats all down to technique) without modifying anything on it at all. If your new to sportbikes which I'm guessing u are take a little time to get used to the bike b4 trying 2 wheelie, enjoy the new bike and ride safe.

a new STOCK 600 will come up in almost every gear with the right technique

haha, the front end is so heavy... don't ask complicated questions, here's all you need to know, stand up staggered, left foot rear peg, right foot front peg, 2nd gear going around 5-6kish and pop the clutch. Now go out and practice practice practice. There isn't a magic rev to start out at and drop the clutch, it's all about getting a feel for it, and the only way you're going to get a feel for it is by DOING it, not asking how other people do it. to get it up in 2nd it takes a lot of revs, start out reving just a little over road speed and get used to what the bike does, and then just keep increasing the revs

shit man i wouldn't even start out standing on rear pegs...just get a feel for the front end coming up first..

the front end is heavy on all street bikes, thats how they are designed...you need that front tire planted firmly...your fat ass will take care of the rear tire

well, heavy compared to what? The whole bike weighs less than 400 wet. Comparing it to maybe a dirtbike than yeah, the front's heavy, but compared to just about any other bike out there, the front is pretty damn light. In first gear it takes nuthin to bring it up, 2nd gear takes a little more but it still comes right up, don't worry about the weight of the bike and spend more time DOING it.

Exactly, its all about where your weight is on the bike and your reaction when he wheel comes up

yesterday i compared the weight of my front end and the weight of an 02 R6 by making a quick U-turn by leaning the bike on the kick stand.... my friend with the R6 that does this manuver all the time wid his bike couldn't do it wid mine........OR maybe we are just weak as hell.......... :lol:

That's the problem. Just keep practicing. Trust me the front end is not heavy. try sitting back in the seat a little. It makes a world of difference. :thumbup:
