KAWI STUNTING advice

This might sound stupid to some but ....before this turns into stuntlife bullshit thread. i really want some opinions here.. ive been stunting on gixxers from day 1 . i love them and i do not have any problems with it. i just got done setting up my new 07 gixxer for stunting a month ago and its been great to me. but i just came up on a 06 636.. and i know kawi bikes are suppose to be the best for stunting now.. and EVERYONES got one or getting one.. i really dont know if i should stunt the kawi or keep the gix. ..#1 i like the gix and it doesnt bother me at all..#2 i have al l the spare parts in the world for that thing and i have it dialed in to the tee! #3 ive been working on gix for a long time so i know how those bikes are inside and out... so those are a few reasons i cant decide that to do

im thinking kawis cant be that much fucken better ...right?

Re: KAWI STUNTING advice

Never rode one but seems you've got alot of time and money into your gix.. I'd keep the kawi for a daily driver or something till the time comes to switch if you want

Re: KAWI STUNTING advice

Ive stunted them both and by far the 636 is better for stunting, It feels lighter when its up idles stronger. I dont like ridin what everyone else is, but if you can have both use that gsxr as your clean street unit and smash the 636.

Re: KAWI STUNTING advice

If your bike runs good why change. Plus you already got it all set up. I'd keep it. If you have my luck, you'd get rid of it, buy the kawi, sink money into it and then relize its a lemon after its too late.
Like I said, if your not haveing problems don't chance it. If you see problems or potential problems, then it may be wroth it.

Re: KAWI STUNTING advice

changing bikes might set you back! i was pretty solid on my 04 636, then i started stunting my 07rr. i lost a lot on the rr so i got another 636. now i feel like im starting over again! its gonna take some time to get back to where i was before.
