I think the real issue here is purpose...can you stunt a cbr 600rr?...of course!...i can stunt my cr150 dirtbike...it's more in the rider than in the bike about stunting...obvioulsy a 600rr can be stunted..it's been done, it's not hard to do, it's got 600cc 107hp-of COURSE it'll stunt...however, this may not be the most IDEAL stuntbike...the engine and chasis geometry of the 900rr has been proven and reproven to have more than ample stunting capability...but it obviously wasn't designed to do it...it just happens to do it well...manufacturers would NEVER mass-market a bike that is exclusively for stunting, b/c let's face it...stunters have gotten such a bad rap over the years that almost every non-motoryclist hates them...
the point is...the 600rr is a much better track bike than it is a stunt bike...i should know, i've raced and stunted the 600rr and the zx6 (i've got both of them) and as far as on the track, the honda wins hands down...that does NOT mean that it can't be stunted...almost ANYTHING can be stunted...
so it's down to what you want...race bike? stunt bike? your choice..honda does it all...but if you want it JUST for stunting there MAY be better alternatives
