Girls and stunting

I started out on a GSXR 600 and it was nice to learn on but not the right bike to stunt on....any upsight on what size and kind of bike I should learn to stunt on. Keep in mind I am a 24 year old female that weighs no more then 110..........Let me know

How come it wasnt the right bike for you?

id say check out bikes that made up where the gixxer was weak, maybe f4i's, r6's

What was wrong with the 600, I have an 01 600, and the only problems I have are too many miles on it and a complete lack of skill

Gixxer 6's are badass bikes....but they lack low-midrange power. They can still do the tricks and all dat $hit don't get me wrong but somethin like an F4i might be better...my .02

Everything that can be done on a 929, f4i, 900rr, or whatever can be done on a late 90s gsxr6. I believe that my bike will always be more capable than my skill. The rider not the bike.

I had a 1999 R6 and I love the Gsxr don't get me wrong but it was way to heavy... I can do most of the simple stunts....wheelies, small stoppies, but I don't feel right going the distance when it comes right down to it. When I get on my friends 2002 r6 it is night and day between my bike and his and I can do most of what I want on his.....hope that helps I am ready to buy another bike

if the r6 feels nice go get you one. I hear lots of people say they are a little too light and twitchy though.

I have an 02 gixxer six hundy...I can do everything with my stock gears...no problems....Ive ridden the 03 R6 and am not a fan but I just seem to fit better on the gix...I would do an f4i over the r6....although since u already have the gix i would just keep rockn it...maybe have someone else show u it can be done on ur bike too, may help with ur confidence in ur own bike or itll **** u off someone else did it and u will work harder on it...LOL ...but if u arent comfortable on ur bike maybe it is time for a new one....confidence is key....

this is Becca, I don't feel like getting registered so I am just using my man's thing, NE ways, I used to stunt a 02 750 & absolutly loved it, I have rode an 02 R6 & it is a tad bit lighter, I am 24 100 lbs, I am only 5' tall, I had to have my gixxer lowered 1 1/2 inches in the front & it was the most comfortable bike I ever stunted, unfortunatly I totaled it last year riding a wheelie, so be careful, always remember keep your foot over the back brake so if you feel it going to high you can set it down (hopefully), not panic like I did & loop the damn thing, now I just stunt with my man. Good luck!!!

your gixxer6 will do anything you want it to but if its a comfort thing then ditch the gixxer and get on some thing else because you wont progress till your comfortable. just my 2 cents i could be wrong
