Are 1000's easier to stunt???

I am about ot buy a 05 Gixxer 1000!! $6250 and been down low sided on a track. Its my boys and its nasty!!!! I am sure i will learn rear brake with out wrecking it. I just wanna know with the bottom end of a 1000, wouldnt it be easier to rock slow ****? Will i have a prob learning rear brake on this bike? I can rock fiddy's and supermotos but, when i had a couple street bikes I never learned rear rear brake cause i was scared to drop them.

Thanks for the advice

The only problem I had with my 1st 1000 was it felt a little longer so my slow stuff was a little wobbley but once I got used to it I like em better

i would imagine they would be harder because you have alot more power, alot more twitchy. i think thats why everyone is off the 1000's and on 600's ever since it has become parking lot stunting more so instead of highway wheelies.

liter bikes **** for slow **** (it can be done though) they just have wayyy too much power, so they are easier to loop (but if you get used to it thats all that matters) and $6250 for a K5 thats been lowsides is too much $
