right time to go full twist
I was wondering if I was in third at say 6000-7000 rpms, would the front come up on me if I went full throttle all at once? I weigh 205 at 6'1. I have tried a roll-on to full throttle at this rpm in third at it pulls real hard. Some of you might say " just try it", but I don't want to flip over. I have the flys out with a map and pipes with stock length swingarm, just to let you know. Only had the flys out with a map for less than a week now.

Either way, its not a turbo that will flip that quickly! Try it and if it comes up, just let off.

I am 195 and it won't even come close to lifting anywhere in third........now grabbing some clutch would be another story.......

Mine doesn't lift in third unless i shift into it too hard - If it does start lifting just back of a quarter inch and enjoy the ride

1st and 2nd no sweat...3rd, forget about at any RPM, unless you go to a different set of sprockets, or you're good enough to clutch it up. I can get her up with a snap in 1st and 2nd at 4-5K without bouncing or pulling her up, but then I'm running 16/43's. I weigh around 210 at 6.2". I can't get it to lift in 3rd, unless she's between gears at 10K...I suppose the right rider could do it though.

If you do feel the front coming up in third it's very unlikely to just flip right over. You will have time to either carefully close the throttle or apply a bit of rear brake to control it. The bike has to come up quite a way before it flips and you're more likely to lose control if the front wheel comes down too hard. Go and practice somewhere safe and legal.

Even full throttle in 1st you will have time to roll off the throttle unless you have notoriously slow reflexes. I'm 225 lbs and I can barely yank it up in 2nd gear, and that's with my bags helping pull me up.
