i got a real good deal on a clean R1.iam thinkin about stuntin it,but was a little worried about the carbs.
anyone stuntin this bike???

 

Armenian used to, but I don't think he did any slow stuff...

 

yeah,thats what i was worried about,slow tricks.

 

just rock the stock gearing... can you ride wheelies now? or are you learning. If your learning than sell it

 

carbed stunt bikes...i wouldnt do it, even "e-dub" ernie moved to a 636, u can get a cool price for it and invest in the stunt ***** f4i

 

had an 00 R6 and a 03 R1

BOTH ARE CRAP FOR STUNTS!!!!!!!!!!

 

but maybe your the crap?!

 

yes i was crap.

yamaha doesnt excatly give you the oppertunity for growth ( in stunting)

one mistake and your on the floor with a busted up bike.

 

well thats true
your drop it its done

 

if its a real good deal buy it then sell it make some

 

ok heres the deal with r1s theres a fine line to ballancing them. they ither wana go way back of gain mad speed. i would get somthing like a 929 954 if you want a biger bike.

 

carbs are great for learning, Dont believe the hype. The only thing they hold you back on are bar tricks, which are gay and finessing good circles.
R1 too much power for the parking lot unless your an expert don't f*ck with a literbike for slow lot stuff, only if you wanna do the highway thing.
plus the R1 subframe is welded to the main frame. Do yourself a favor and dont get a literbike for the for slow lot stuff, you'll hate it.

HONDA 600cc from 1987-2007- for learning my 2 cents

 

I started stunting with the R1 and it's really hard to stunt with it cause the throttle is really jumpy, I couldn't go too slow with it but the highway stuff was awesome the bike comes up and balances no problem in higher speeds. Does really good endos. Now I switched to an F4i and things are soo much easier my advice is if you wanna stunt and go slower don't get the R1 but if your up for highway wheelies it's insane control and fun. Me personnally I am having way more fun with the F4i cause I can do more stuff and learn a lot faster.

 

i rocked the **** outta a 99 R1 back in 02 and loved it, but then again that was in the land of Front peggers doing 80-90 mph and danglers.......

 

yup
A mistake that might just spook you on a 600 will bodyslam you on a literbike. that R1 is putting down three times the horsepower at idle than the 600
