Hey all, I just bought a 99 Katana 750 with 6500 miles on it. Love the bike, it rides nice and has plenty of power. The problem is, it wont wheelie unless I clutch it up. Do any other 750 owners have this problem? I know I can gear down in the front to help, but really dont want to.

Ex10... do yourself a favor and edit out what you said in your post. If not you'll never hear the end of our abuse bud.
The basic facts:
Wheeling a Kat WILL eventually, and fairly quickly, destroy it because it wasnt designed with that in mind (engine will not get sufficient oil, front suspension not made to withstand the force of coming back down, etc).
If you want to keep that Kat running for long... be nice to it and use it for what it was made for...
