raw power. dont try it in 1st because it will be more unstable and might flip all the way back. just get coasting in 2nd and then goose it. if thats not enough also pull back on the bars and it will wheely with no problem. also try to keep your foot on the back break and if you feel like your going to flip just tap it. btw the raptor 660 can wheely with the best of them. i wohould not recomend trying to pop the clutch

to get an easy feel of where the balance point is you can use your feet on the grab bar in the back .
Definetly dont pop the clutch on the 660 or youll be under the bike.

hey sup bro i got a 660 last year and i no ITS *****IN SICK right lol. but uhh yea i agree wit bigned1904 just kinda put around in second they just hit it, u'll figure out the balance point just from practicing them, yea and u really dont need the clutch and i recomend tryin them in a field first them bringin them to the streets. and dont worry bout flippin cause the grab bar just scrapes but if u do go to far just hold on and dont let go then like bigned1904 said just tap that back brake. have fun
