Setting up an old FZR - Anyone on here ever stunt one?
 

Hey guys,

First post.

I've been riding for several years now and recently had to get rid of my R6 - my girlfriend was planning on going to college and needed to cut the payments down. Last year I bought an old '95 FZR 600 for $600; I put $100 in to it and drove it for most of last season before one of the bearings for the main shaft disintegrated. I am currently underway fixing for spring.

Anyway, I always wanted to give stunting a go and a going to try and set my FZR up for it.

I know it's far from ideal but it's what I have right now and I know people must have stunted worse... The thing will have a freshly rebuilt engine and a YZF swingarm (I can pit a 180 on then) and set of newer forks (swap).

I guess I'm looking for any advise I can get on setting up my first stunter and hopefully hear some first hand experience stunting an older sportsbike.

What's the general thoughts about handlebars vs clip ons? Is it personal preference or do the handle bars make that big of a difference?

Actually, I've decided to cancel this plan.

Gonna go with something else.

Please delete this thread. Thanks.
