need advice on a bike

I am looking to get into stunting. I have a 01 suzuki sv650s, but it is a v-twin, so it will seize during wheelies. I am looking at a not running 1990 kawi zx6r for $600. It has good tires, stage 1, and some other small mods. How good would this bike be for learning to stunt. I have no doubt that I can get it running, so that should not be a problem. Also, does anyone have any advice for me to start, or anything that would be helpfull? smbball32@hotmail.com

SV650= Badazz for slow stuff.

I stunted the crap outta one down in Texas with my buddy, and stock it was great for slow stuff. For highway though they suck bad. Ha Ha.

Anything can be stunted, but a 1990 is gonna be heavy and a pig. Its carburated too. bleh. F4izzle or 636. 929 or 954 if you want big bike power.

For that money you could probably get an F3 and if you doubled your money and turned over a lot of rocks you might be able to find a F4i. My buddy bought a stunt 03 636 for 1700 last week so the deals are out there.

Re: need advice on a bike

just give up. you're already putting too much thought into it if you have to come on here and ask questions about a bike before trying it or reading through here.

pick any bike and just stunt, stop being a weiner.
