You gotta be more specific. But alot of the west coast guys stunt Gixxers. the East coast guys tend to stunt 636's or F4i's. I thoroughly enjoyed my Gixxer stunt bike, but you will usually have to put more effort into getting or making parts. Good luck

I had a tubular steel one from scrapeworks. I dontthink they male them anymore bit that thing was golden. The stocks are weak for sure but if you run a pruned bar or reinforce ot you'll be fine. No gorilla scrapes on a 12 bar lol.

dont know the sites, just gotta google it, plus keep an eye out for hb setups in the bike parts forsale section of the forum or just make a thread in the parts wanted one, thats the easiest way of finding stuff.

I hear if you put an 04 1000 subframe on it that they bolt up well and are much stronger. GOOGLE IT
