noob stunt bike setup question
 
I'm pretty new to this, I have a 2006 636 that was set up for the track and I want to convert it into a stunt bike. The front seems pretty low, the sitting posture is very leaned forward. I want to raise the front to be able to bring the front end up easier and be able to lean back more. I know I can put higher bars but I haven't seen that a lot with bigger stunt bikes. What is the best way to raise the front? I have seen many stunt bikes where people are sitting more upright, it seems like the forks are longer than stock? how can i achieve this?

You don't want longer forks or a high siting front end due to stability issues. The forks on that 06 636 should be flat with the top of the triple from what I remember. If that's the case then keep it there. If you want higher bars you can get some high rise clip ons. It has opens in the triple tree (been a while since i've been on a 636) which makes it hard to put dirtbike bar risers on it. Search for some stunt companies that make a top triple clamp with dirtbike bar clamps on them then you can use some dirtbike bars. It does help with some leverage and sitting higher but it's not going to make stunting "easier". It just makes it different. So I wouldn't dump a ton of money into it thinking it will be easier to stunt. I only switched on my f4i because it's cheaper to replace dirtbike bars over clip ons. I had no issues the years of stunting on 636, f4i or 929 with stock clip ons.
