Need advice on a stunt bike for me

I am torn between a '03 ZX6R and '01 GSXR750. I would like to start learning and doing stunts this spring. I've been riding my Yamaha YZF600R for about a year and a half now.

So, please help me decide on which bike I should get. I would use it for a street bike, maybe a track day two or three times a year, and stunting for most of the times. The only concern I have is my size. I am only 5'4" and 145 lbs. Compared to my current YZF, the new 6R seems a little smaller and much lighter. I know the 750 seems bigger but is around the same weight of the new 6R. So based on the above info, which do you think I should get given that $$$ is not a factor?

I would get the 01 gixxer, only because why would you wanna drop, scratch, and dent up a brand new bike.

Or better yet if money really isn't a factor keep the yzf for stuntin, and get the 03 kawi, or the gixxer for a street/stip bike.

You will probably fit better on the zx6r. However, I heard the gsxr 750 is a great stunt piece. So if you don,t mind the wide gzxr body, then that might be the one. Good Luck:p

What if I throw the 929 into the mix? Would I fit better on a 929?
