As far as a cage goes, get any one. Dont bother with a 12 (in my opinion). And make sure there is at least 2 sprockets and one chain. You can do it with any combination (stock or otherwise).

Re: Gixxer 600 stunt set-up
my suggestion is go with a good solid cage for now... like a 905 or MXD, something really beefy and bulky b/c you WILL wreck it. Also, go with a wide 12 bar in the rear (I suggest 14" wide) but make sure it is very close to your tail light.... the reason why I say a wide 12 bar is b/c if you do loop the bike or it does tumble a bit the 12 bar sometimes saves the rear half of the bike, even pegs to sometimes.
2 things I definitely suggest though: (1) Reinforce your subframe if you do decide to go with a 12 bar that is wide, and (2) TAKE EVERY PIECE OF PLASTIC OFF THAT YOU DON'T WANT DAMAGED, OR THAT YOU PLAN ON PUTTING BACK ON FOR SOME REASON. SERIOUSLY!!!! The only plastic I ever had on my bike was the tail section, and the front cowl over the front wheel... that was it!!! Its so much easier to deal with a bike that is streetfightered when you are learning VS a full faring bike!!!!!!

Re: Gixxer 600 stunt set-up
You don't need sprockets and hand brakes and all that other ****. get a cage and maybe a 12 bar and go out and learn. if you haven't stunted anything before i suggest getting a dirtbike, that would be your best mod because you WILL crash if you really stunt and are just learning. I have been rocking a stock RM 250 with a bar (its extremely short barely passes the seat by 4 inches) and it has taught me so much for when im on my gsxr and its much cheaper to fix, just my
