a larger part though is what year. Mine was an 81 yamaha 750 Secca and that 750 has about no relation to a 750 today

To Catach: It depends, a 600 for Felces may be big for him but is relatively small for me. I am 6'4", 275 but muscular. I have been told that I sometimes look like a monkey fckn a football, but its for the love of the ride. MY next bike is going to be TL1000R. Hooah!!!

600 is all you need, with a sprocket your good to go, plus they are lighter and easier to throw around, i started on a zx6r(2000), then went to a 900rr when i destroyed that, then went back to a zx6r b/c the 900rr was the biggest peice of **** i ever rode, not just mine...everyone i ever got on...felt like i was on a kan-a tuna......

i started on a 96 F3 for my first one. that sucked, so i got a 99 RR and stunted that for a bit, then i looped it and sold it. looking to buy another 600 though, anyone selling?

Re: Are people who start with larger bikes more prone to stunting?
My first real big street bike was 1n 84 a gs1100e.
I would wheelie it on the highway, unheard of back then.
Been into racing for years and just got hip to the stunt game last year.
I've always had a few street bikes on hand since the mid 80's. and my wheelie's are still garbage compared to most stuna's. 
Ive been looking for somthin like this do wit a motorcycle. tried about everything else. Seen the starboys at mid ohio sportscar coarse and man I'm hooked !!!!!!!!
If the question is realy about bigger bikes make u more prone to stunt I'd say
a NO . If I had a 600 right now i'd be tearin it up ( the bike that is )
