I'm seriously close to purchasing one due to the lack of leftover 954's anywhere, although I've never actually ridden any 1000rr's

to anyone who owns one or ridden one, whats your thoughts on the bike all around, stunt, feel, ride etc...

:YEAH

 

i wouldnt stunt it, i havent tried to stunt one because i didnt have a lid on and it wasnt my bike, but i did take it up & down the street a few times and i have to say, that bike is fast, really fast. i would get it for a daily rider but i wouldnt stunt it. save your money and get a used bike if you are going to stunt. you will be pissed after spending 10,000 just to trash a bike.

get an old 929 or a f4i.

oh and the handling on the bike was perfect.

 

I love my 1000RR but I don't know if I would turn it to stunt only. Thats a lot of money to turn into a stunt bike.

 

dude.....u on a pocket bike......in ur avater......how far did u wheelie

 

I can wheelie that thing pretty far. Probably 100 feet.

 

i heard it's stock dampner doesn't work well for stoppies.

 

i parked one 12 style...on accident...didnt cover the brake and pulled to hard....messed my knee up pretty good....and the muffler

 

true dat.

 

I guess I'm an idiot then 'cause I spent 10,000 on my 929 back in 2000 when they came out and turned it into a stunt bike. What's the difference, I mean 10,000 is still 10,000 right? Just curious as to why would you want a 1000 to stunt off of anyway? If you find a shortage of 954's for sale come to Texas, 'cause there's plenty of 'em down here, for sale that is.........Late
Free C............ Major without a Major.

 

Yeah the HESD is straight dumpsta for endos. You can't adjust it so the computer doesn't know to stiffen the front for an endo. It is great for racing and high speed turns though. I'm not turnin my RR into a stunt bike though. I'll just find a 929 somewhere and stunt it.

 

what about that one dude that backflips off everything. doesnt he ride a 1000rr? hes pretty good at stunting his bike.

 

I stunt all my bikes, but I dont stunt them to the point they are trashed. I just had my 929 stolen not too long ago, cant find any leftover 954's and I gotta buy new (financing) so thats why I'm curious about the 1000

tryin to find a repsol is hard

 

If you are gonna stunt it don't get the Repsol. Plus you are payin alot more for just stickers and some little crap.

 

Personally I'd buy a ZX-10 over any bike out even the new 1000. They just did a shootout with all the liter bikes for 05, and even though the GSXR came out on top, they said they would have picked the ZX-10 if it had come with a damper stock. The CBR1000RR came in 4th.

The ZX-10 was the lightest, most flickable, most powerful, most wheelie prone bike of all.

 

I've had a kawi in 98, had a gsxr in 99 .. been honda ever since, just my preference, dont really care what magazine shootouts have to say or how good suzuki is doing in AMA this year

there has to be someone out there stunting the 1000rr??? right???

 

ThoudubbaRR's are sweet **** street/race bikes; very,very stable, awesome USABLE power and brakes. ZX10R's are decent streetbikes if your 5 foot 4 and ride about four poser miles a day. Magazines don't mean ***** especially when were talkin' about stuntin'. I ridden both of them and the Bottom Line is neither one is a really good stuntbike. Get a 6hondo!

 

which would u rather do. the 1000rr would be good for wheelies cuz all the torque but for mainly stuntin id go with a 600 a lot lighter and smaller. if you like lots of speed and occasional stunts...1000RR all the way

 

1000rr's break really easy the subframes are like butter if you wanna stunt go get a 929 or 954

 

a dude i ride with every week has one, and he loves it. he can pull it up at 120 like nuthin...hes crazy. he almost lost me on the highway the other day, we were goin around highway curves and i was doin 150 and he was gone....i had to catch up when he pulled off to get gas. but it wheelies great as far as i know, but i have heard complaints about that digital dampener and how theres no adjustment.

i havent ridden it yet, but hes got a lot of years riding (10+) and hes damn good and he loves it. plus its badass lookin
