Help with choosing a bike

Im looking at starting to get into stunting. My bike ride experience would be bmx and some motocross. And now Im really wanting to get a license(maybe) and deffinitly get a bike. Im looking at a cbr600rr and an r6 Im wanting a used bike so I dont have to pay too much. What do you all recommend as a first real bike/ first stunt bike. Thank you.

Re: Help with choosing a bike

Would a newer cbr600rr be as good as the f4i. As I see it the cbr600rr would be the big brother to the f4i.

Re: Help with choosing a bike

Definatley get an F4I I just got one last weekend. I put it on the ground once and my bumbass friend did too. Picked it up and besides the cap popping off the handbrake resivor it was fine. I flipped two stoppies on my R6 and both times it was subframes and alot of other ****. The F4I definatley took at least one spill that was harder and nothing bent.

How much can I get one for? Id almost rather just get a cbr600rr if its the big brother. The 07s are sick. Only problem is Im a relatively small guy 5 foot 9 and 130 pounds The r6 fits me very well, but the hondas are too big feeling for me. I dont feel as comfortable on them. What can you reccomend thats around the same size as the r6?

but the f4i is so ugly. What about a bike that feels/ looks like an r6? Does such a thing exist. Would sliders help keep an r6 from breaking.

Re: Help with choosing a bike

You have to decide what you want to do. If you want to stunt you are going to crash. Therefor need a tougher bike. I have done tons and tons of wheelies with my R6 no crashes. First weekend trying to really slow it down and I crashed. Glad it was my F4I not my R6 or GSXR
