I have been ridin for 7 years & stuntin for the last 3..I just now decided to build my bike into a stunt bike...I dont know too much about it ( I dont think) so I took it upon myself to order a few things for the spring..I got a 60 tooth rear sprocket, 12 bar & crash cage (Freestyle inginuity)..& incase of "selling emergency" I got a set of NEW OUT OF THE BOX body work...what else do I need....Oh I also got a season supply of FREE oil changes...sooo now what else do I need???


Any help Is good help!!

Cheers theotherone

 

dont forget to overfill the oil a bit. But thats once you get your wheelies nice and high and your ridin them for a while. And wear some kind of knee/shin gaurds.

 

You NEED to give up on the thought that your bike is gonna stay minty or be resellable for anywhere near what you paid for it if you are going to "hardcore" stunt it. Yeah, you can get away with doin wheelies and stoppies and little stuff. But if you are gonna work on the NEW and harder tricks, slow stuff, etc, you are gonna break a lot of stuff. Sorry, that's just how it goes. My suggestion to you would be to sell that minty new body work, save a little more loot, and but a salvage stunna from a yard. www.tocc.biz and argocycles.com both have em!!! It will save you loot in the long run!!!

 

You should see my before and after pictures. Bought it for $6300, sunk in about $2500.00 in minty type upgrades and can't even get $2000.00 now.

 

You guys have it all wrong......I have been stuntin it HARD...The body work on it right now is trashed...The other body work (new) is in a box in my dads garage..I bought it for when I sell the bike...That way it "looks" new..Follow me??...& whats this about "fillin the oil"...I havent heard of this B4

 

over filling the oil helps on oil starvation from the bike being up in a wheelie for along time. I usually put in an extra 1/2 qt in my Hizonda. Other bikes are more natorious for starving themselves of oil up in a wheelie (gixxers) But either way it doesnt hurt the bike to have extra oil in it

 

ok, OVERfilling the oil is simply putting in an extra 1/2 quart to a quart EXTRA oil (more than what the bike is supposed to have in it) that way when you are carrying a high wheelie (highway, slow roll, coaster) your motor doesn't starve for oil, it will prolong the life of the motor. Just don't go crazy and fill it tooo much cause that is bad for the crankcase seals!!!

You still didn't tell us what kind of bike we're talkin about, it makes a difference cause different bikes need different mods!

 

So lying to someone when selling a beat up "minty looking" bike is ok? Some people really kill me....]

Stock up on rear tires, I have 10 at home but you are too far for me to ship em.

are you serious about the shin guards?! how would you hit your shins...i do on my 905 but without that would see no other way of hitting them...also i run 5 quarts in my f2 everytime i change the earl

 

Don't forget....your gonna need skillz Oh and how have you been stuntung for 3 years and just now your turning it into a stunt bike?

 

Definatly need shin guards with the 905 style cage. I don't care how tough or how tough you think you are. Its ****in hurts without them.

As for the mint fairings, do yourself a favour and sell em!! They are worth a ton of $$$ on ebay, and if your stunting it hardcore you'll never need them. Fairings will never fit properly on your bike again. All of the brackets, mounts and your birdcage will be bent up etc... Your also guaranteed to put a ding or at least a nice scratch in the frame too, making it hard to sell as a 'mint' bike.

Destroying a $10,000 bike isn't an easy thing to come to reality with, but get used to it, cause its fun!

 

Holly Phk ..Ok I have been ridin wheelies..High chairs, rolling endos , rolling burnouts...**** like that...Last season I started on slow **** & scrapin the tail...I dumped it a couple times..Luckely with not alot of damage to the engin caseing..& for that fact I decided I really wanted to get SERIOUS about this **** so "I started building a stunt bike"..I thought by posting a thread about that I could get the BEST help..so far Im right.....thanx guys..(well most of you anyways)...Oh & my bike is a 2000 CBR 929

*****!!!!!!

 

don't forget your handbrake bro. you wanna impress some scrape a hichair or seat stander, but ya cant do it wit out the brake

 

you do not need a hand brake to scrape highchairs or seat standers

 

I've seen some footage of him 12vin.. granted it dosen't end to well.. but I'd believe the rest of what he's saying. You're hardcore man.. you did that **** without a cage. :YEAH

 

I would cut your brake and clutch lever down so they don't break when you bail. Maybe a spare set of pegs would be good, and I wouldn't worry about a hand brake until you are smooth on your slow stuff.

 

and don't forget to stock up on zipties. believe it or not. If u need a few real quick from radio shack or whatever U GET RIPPPPPPED off. Go and get a buttload or something from home depot. rofl. Or if u know some dude like an electrician or whatever snnnnnnnnnnnnag that!!!!! they;re golden. Nothing like driving home with things flapping in the wind when a pack of zipties in the trunk might save u one day.

 

YES!!! Zip ties are a stunters best friend!! When bolts no longer line up, or when the plastic breaks, zip ties work everytime. I have so many "stiches" on my bike it rediculous. Gotta Love em!

 

don't forget a powerband!
