You May Be a Stunter If …
1) After a crash the first thing you ask is” did someone get that on tape”.
2) Your living room dubs as winter storage and a repair facility.
3) You have a weekly budget for cycle repairs.
4) Your idea of perfect plastics means that some of the tabs are still there.
5) The people at Joann Fabrics know you by name.
6) You would rather ride then get laid
7) You have a million parts bikes but only one bike that barley runs
8) To you laying your bike down means parking it
9) You live by 3 letters, F.T.P.
10) Your idea of a perfect bike is one that has already been wrecked
11) A truck has to follow you “just in case”
12) You have a ticket collection you are proud to display
13) Your idea of a new tire is one that dosent have cords showing

Re: What is the definition of a STUNTER? *POLL*
I think i class as a 'learner' stunter.
I ride a 2 stroke which makes some tricks difficult, not making excuses but i find other bikes are easier. But i still try all the time.
I can do crappy wheelies, slowly getting them higher and higher, i can ocassionally pull christ airs off and hold them (still practicing), i can ride high chair, i can get small endos down. My one day off work in 3 weeks i was in a housing estate being built giving the builders a show as i practised. Bike has been dropped 3 times, clutch is slipping bad from burnouts. I almost had an off yeturday, practising riding backwards on the tank with no hands, ive only been riding 6 months, trying to stunt the last 2 and i thought of how i could do it, tried and almost ate it, afterwards was a bit shaken but still went and tried again, im so close to getting it now.
So yeh, i have a couple of good tricks, i cant do major stuff, i still get abuse/respect from public but i enjoy practising and i set a goal to pull off a trick before i start the bike in the morning.

Decleration of one, by oneself .You could be the pimp daddy of two wheels, with one on the ground, if you don't feel like one, you're not a stunna. Than again, you could suck at anything, including starting the bike when it's been down, if you trully believe you are a stunna, than you are a stunna. *** what everyone says, you've got to believe in yourself, otherwise you're wasting your time

Re: What is the definition of a STUNTER? *POLL*
I think it all depends on riding style and attitude. almost any one can do a wheelie or endo but it is the level you take that wheelie or endo to and how much you practice.

Re: What is the definition of a STUNTER? *POLL*
My view is a stunter is someone who goes and dedicates his time to learning as many tricks as possible... I don't consider guys that do mile long standups and that's all they do a stunter. That's a rider that can do good wheelies.A stunter puts his heart, wallet and his life into riding. My
