Hight And Weight Of Stunters

I'm 6ft, and 150 lbs. It's easier for a lot of stunts if your lighter, because you can move around a little better. But it basically comes down to the rider, and alot of people use it as an excuse. The bikes down for whatever, it's basically how good agile you are, in shape, strength, stuff like that but the main part is personal motivation.
well I know a guy that is maybe just a little smaller tha you & he broke 2 pegs, 1 while riding a 3rd gear stand , nasty ending, & the other he just sat a wheelie down & it snapped, so be careful, it was a Yamaha (R 1)
6'3"- 260 i got an 02 r2 and ibroke both pegs on it. they r not very strong. last 02 i had i was doing a nak nak and the bolt broke. crashed and burned at about 100. its actually the bolts that break, not the pegs. i have changed all my bolts to grade 8 and haven't had any problems yet. knock on wood
also by the way for all you big guys like me anything is possible if you put your mind to it. im big and ican move around pretty good on the bike and can pretty much do all high speed tricks and im working on the slow ones. takes alot of pracrice keep up the practice peace out
