I have tried to stunt my cbr but the balance point is way hihger than my 02 gsxr was. i bright up the front to where i am lookingh around the bars when i am sitting and i still have to accelerate to keep it up. has anybody else noticed this or do i just need to go higher? i am not trying to scrape my tail but i miss the mile long freeway wheelies i used to hit on my gsxr.

 

i hear you on the stand ups man, i used to do 1mile ++ on my 954.....

and no, i cant really help you yet...i only have 400 miles on my 06 1krr....

but i will let you know in a few weeks.....

I was told the newer bikes are longer and have more of a rake to keep the front down for better handling.
My friend said all the trick riders use the older bikes like the CBR 9's

 

Yes, you are correct. The BP on the 1000RR is very high... the highest of anything I've personally seen.
Definatly a big change from a GSX-R 750 etc.

I still havn't hit BP... it was no problem on my F4, but this thing is soo friggn touchy at BP I don't dare to
yet. Maybe this summer

Keep at it, it's up there/ Oh BTW, you definatly want to be fogetting about the 1st gear wheelies on this bike... too dangerous IMO.
