Monster 1st gear wheelies

[larra]

This is not really a complaint, but the bike wheelies so easily in the first gear that the first gear use is somewhat limited by it. there is just no way to keep the nose down at anything more than half throttle . 2nd gear wheelies happen at times without any tricks too but the 1st gear wheelies are the monsters
How do you drag race these bikes? launch in the 2nd gear? lol
