Default Shifting into third

Can anyone tell me what to expect when shifting into third gear when wheeling? im bored of just riding out 2nd gear, but i have no idea what to expect with a speed shift on one wheel. i mean i can do it on a dirt bike but this is a little more powerful. so any help would be great, and paul you might want to take notes too, j/k j/k dont be mad...and u need to come back already i have no one to ride w/!!!

Oh my god...you just said that! haha. hey when are you going to post up some video son? I want to see these mastered 2nd gear whoolies. And if you want to keep your bike looking shiny then I suggest you stay strong with your 2nd gears and maybe draw the line there. Leave the cool **** to someone like...me!
Anyway, I'll post up some pics soon of bike life out here. You have to see the twisties and all the other bikes out here...it's a beautiful thing. I don't know if I told you but Renee's cousin bought a bike three days before I came out (an 05' r6) so he has been showing me all the back roads. You should probably come out here if anything, especially in a month or so. We are getting a group together to ride out to laguna seca for the race. It's going to be nuts. Oh and one final thing, please remove the "paul can't whoolie" from your signature. It is screwing with my street credit out here! My bike just didn't feel good that day. I swear.

If your shifting pattern was reversed it'd be alot easier...

I'm not sure how you switch it on bikes that aren't gixxers...

But mine is switched.
