2nd gear, around 20mph give or take, 2 finger dump (quick snap) the clutch while on the throttle a bit. First time you do it start in the lower rpm range so you can get a feel for it. Just pop the tire up. Especially if you haven't wheelied anything before. Practice and be patient with yourself or you will definitely flip the bike. After a while you can wheelie these things easy and stabilize for longer runs. I haven't been successful at upshifting my 250 into 3rd in a wheelie yet though. All my 250 dirt bikes I can run thru the gears easily. Practice practice practice! Oh, and never panic. Keep your toe over the rear brake and a gentle tap will bring ya back down.
