All I get is tire spin on my 98 WideGlide. Can't get the front wheel up for S*&T. Probably bad technique, but I'd like to figure it out myself.

I do wheelies all the time on the 4-wheeler and street bike, but never REALLY tried on the Harley. I may have lofted the front tire a few inches off the ground, but nothing to balance point like in the vids.
