I think everyone has this problem when they start to do wheelies... First of all, are you clutching it up? Assuming you're doing a sit down clutch up, do it at about 20 mph, if it doesn't come up that high, slow back down to about 20, and give it a little more gas until it comes up higher. While the bike is coming up, keep on the throttle, or all it's gonna do is slam back down. Once you pretty much have to look around the tank to see, you're at balance point. One thing though, keep your foot over the rear brake, I can't stress this enough...Looping a bike isn't fun at all, I've done it before cause I never covered the back brake. So wile you're one the wheelie, and if you kinda feel the bike drop too far backwards, let off the throttle, and hit the brake, but like I said before, you're not at balance point until you have to look around the tank.
