im thinkin about buyin a bike and im hopin to do alot of stuntin. do you know if buells or ducatis are any good for stuntin?

 

Seen A Couple Of Guys During The Summer Killing Some Wheelies On Them, They Looked Real Smooth But Remember The Oil Runs In The Frame Or Somthing Like That..

 

I've heard of a couple guys killin them but I think I'd stick with what has more accesible parts...

 

Check out Bubba Blackwell. He does entire stunt shows on just Buells and Harleys. I'm getting an XB12Ss, and I saw him pullin' endos, wheeleys, burnouts, ect. the only thing you have to realize, is that the tank is in the frame, and the air intake is where the tank normaly is. Because of that you cant dent the top in. It's a great bike though. Check the buell site out for more info.

 

if you wanna get into stunting for cheap, or if your on a tight budget the Ducati Desmosedici RR is a great starter bike.

 

I used to be sponsored by Buell had the XB12R ..............THAY SUCK!!!!!!!!!

 

neither if ur starting to stunt. they cost alot and you will destroy it in a month stuntin. maybe not i dont know you. but i would go with good ol cheap and reliable japan.

I actually think I might have one of those floating around somewhere in the garage. Bought a few extra a while back so friends would have something to ride when they came over. :D


Dici's are practically disposable. Great starter bike for those learning.

just what I know....

 

I was thinking about getting the XB12s myself not for stunting just to ride until I test rode one this wkend. It felt real heavy even though it claims to be only 395lbs dry and it is under powered. There is a ton of torgue but thats it, the brakes were ok I was expecting better and even the saleman had said these bikes arent built for stunting they will brake and cost a ton to fix.

Also test rode the Speed Triple and that bike was a ton of fun great power gd brakes overall its a solid choice, but I think I will stay jap for now. The new zx-6 is growing on me except for the head lights.

You can go to any Triumph dealer with a Motorcycle lic and test drive there bikes and some Harley dealerships will do the same. Try that before you purchase anything

 

The '08 or '09? '09 has some different models.

 

I rode an XB9R and wow, heavy and underpowered. Torque sure, but it fell off at about 2k RPMs hahaha. No way I would want to ride a Buell, let alone stunt one. Ducati? Have fun payin' a **** load for a bike and not being able to find any stunt parts for it. I'm sure both bikes have their positives but I don't think either of them is stunting. If you want to practice stunts and have no idea what bike to buy do yourself a favor and get a Japanese 600 and thank yourself later. After you can rock circles, if you reeeaaally want to switch to the Ducati Desmosedici RR, I say **** it... that ****!

 

that 08 super motard edub ridin looks like a sportbike disguised as a dirtbike that one side swing arms pimpin

 

How about the new 1125CR? It's got an 1125cc rotax. My friend is a Harley Dealer, and he said that the thing is a beast! I'm either getting an XB12Ss, or 1125CR, my friend's gonna give me a deal, so the cost wont be too high.

 

Dude, I have a 2007 xb9r and I would not recommend getting one I'm not sure of the 1125 but the xb models are not good to stunt the bike has good torque but that is about it plus you would have to convert to chain which is like $800 and I have not seen a cage for one so you may have to make one. I'm not trying to diss Buell but I will never buy another one...EVER.

 

Why is the belt not good? How is the Buell for riding around, maybe the occasional wheelie, or endo? I have my dirt bike, and that would be what I stunt most, because my yard is like 1.7 acres. What does that Hypermotored thing go for?

 

Look at this. http://www.bubbablackwell.com/index.html Bubba Blackwell, he stunts the Buells.
