Thanks for all the comments. I did mention this to another guy a while back and he said something similar: to roll off the throttle before shifting. So maybe I am trying to shift too fast. When I am at a stoplight on a 500cc bike I want to get out of there fast when traffic is behind me.

Ben, I’m in Chicago but I would have loved to have had your assistance. I will try to get someone else to ride when the weather gets better here. However, I think it is my shifting to fast and not getting off the gas. I’ve heard that before but didn’t believe it.

Thanks for all your help

But, I still want a 600cc bike.Will someone say it’s okay to get one this summer, Please! LOL

Thanks for the comment. Well it happens when I upshift.

Here’s my technique; When I am riding of course I have the throttle open, so I pull in the clutch, up shift, then let the clutch back out. At the point I let the clutch back out, it revs up quite a bit like from 7000 to about 15000.

two questions here
1. So should I consider getting a 600cc bike this summer or get this under control first?
2. Now do you still think this will not pop a wheelie on a 600cc bike?
