Better Stunt Bike?
What's the better stunt bike out of these?
96-98 Gsx-r750
99 Gsx-r750
00-03 Gsx-r750
01-02 Gsx-r1000
03-04 Gsx-r1000
I currently have an 03 R6. I can pretty much do all the basic tricks (christs, endos, skitch, etc.) which the exception of riding out wheelies. I've put a pipe, PC3, v stacks, slide stop kit, & -1/+2 520 sprockets on my bike. It's powerful but too twitchy. I can power up 3rd without a problem but can't keep it up. I'm wanting to learn all the stunts from highchairs to no-handers to 12's. I'd like to stick to yamaha's but their frames are **** and the 1 piece frame/sub frame wouldn't cut it. I wouldn't mind a honda but they're just too damn uncomfortable. Kawasaki's - NO. So that leaves me with Suzuki. There's plenty of parts available just about anywhere, their frames are expensive but hopefully I won't go through too many. Gsx-r600 doesn't have the power I want, and from what I've heard the 1000 doesn't have any room for error.

Fu(k it yo, you like yamaha stay with that. I stunt a 2000 R1 and it works just fine for everything. People talk about having the right bike but the bike dont mean ****. Its all about what the rider can do. In other words stick with what you got.

ive got a 929 and i love it. yeah its a little uncomfortable for just ridin around but if your stuntin the whole time then you dont really have time to notice how uncomfortable it is anyway. so i say consider a honda.
