Re: gearing???

it will be harder to learn throttle control with big gears. Even once you learn it on stock sprockets you'll have to fine tune it even further for big sprockets.

Re: gearing???

Bro, you're exactly right PRO's do have big sprockets. Key word being in caps... The biggest prob. I see with stunters in general is "They want to walk before they crawl." Truth be told 75% of the people on here don't need a big sprocket or HB's. A big sprocket doesn't make you a stunter, more like a poser if you don't need it. That huge sprocket is going to make throttle inputs a whole lot more sensitive making the basics all the more frustrating. Plus, the better you get the better you'll be suited in making a educated decision on what prods. you want to put on your bike. Instead of listening to someone on here with a high post count and no skill. Learn the basics rear brake control, coasters, scrapes, idle, no handers and then put that frisbee on there.

Re: gearing???

Be patient and most of all be consistent with your riding and you will be well pleased. The biggest help you'll get is finding and riding with people better than you.

Re: gearing???

I got a 905 cage on my 1000rr. It protects really good but it rough on your shins. I have to wear soccer shin guards when I ride. I have a FI cage on my 600rr. I love that one. Doesnt get in the way and works well.
