yes technique is key, but my R11S had the Corbin Smuggler on it which didn't really allow me to get my weight back far enough, and in the case of the R11S there just wasn't a surplus of power to get the front end up. yes, punching it in first will get the wheel up on anything, but the R12S pulls wheelies on its own when I am revving it in 4th, there is a big difference.
