I just got a new 03 r6 I waS wondering if anyone could tel me how they are as stunt bikes, my past bike was a 00 gixxer i loved it let me know how you guys liek the r6s thanks:p

 

for me i didn't like my old r6 (99') it felt to narrow to me. but it is light and you can throw it around a lot easier than a gixxer and the 03' is cool as **** looking.

 

good bikes for speed,stuntin on one is questionable............i tried to be nice.:D

 

I have an 02 and whenever I do stand ups on the damn thing the tail bruises the **** out of my calves. I like the bike but its not fun to stunt , and the bike is mint so i don't go nuts on it. However, I fixed that problem by getting an 01 GSXR 750 that i can beat the **** out of. Good luck with the 03 its a hot looking bike.

 

That's weird. You're the only person I've ever heard complain of a bike being narrow.




Weird. I've never bruised my calves from doing standups. Chalk it up to different styles, I guess.

 

Hey smb123, do you like, try to insult people? I see you contradicting people a lot.

 

Get your wheelies up higher and then your calves will not touch the tail.

 

Uhm, I just said it was weird that he thought the R6 is too narrow. Most people ENJOY that aspect of it.

 

Oh, and I think most people are dumb in general. And that holds true for internet forums.

Half of the people on any forum have no clue what they are talking about, they just listen to something that someone else says who is really clueless themselves. That's how lies and untruths propogate.

If I think someone is wrong or just blowing smoke, what is wrong with me putting my 2 pennies in? Not a damned. No one would learn anything if EVERYONE agreed.

 

ive heard complaints of bruised calves before on r6's . so its not just you.

 

i dont know about bruises but if i put my left foot on the rear peg and go for a standup it makes my leg bend ALOT...one solution...SAW!!:devil

 

If I go up any higher i'll end up on my back. My stands ups are jacked up so I don't know it must be the way I stand.

 

They look tite as ****, BUT i had a friend die on one and a bunch of people crash them. I dont trust them but ive only riden them a few times. Tare it up bro,good luck!

 

damn "ineed$$$" that is one crazy pic you got on your sig, makes me go straight to the catalog for a new set of leathers
