Default Whats the bike i should be looking for?

I have an 07 600rr and i love it but i dont want to push my limits with a bike thats not even paid off yet. i can ride stand ups in 2nd (staggerred) and of course 1st gears but i am really lookin for a stunt bike that i could pick up for 1k-2k. anyone have any suggestions on which direction i should head lookin for a stunt bike.

A Honda F4I or a Kawasaki 636 is the best stunt bikes, they have plenty of torque for wheelies and are pretty much indestructible.

To learn on.....I'd go with an F4i or a 636......But honestly a 929 or a 954 is the best all around stunt bike. You can roll the hell out of stoppies on a 954 compared to a 600, hehe...Also the 929/954 makes for a better street fighter. Bigger sprockets on the bikes make the engine stay in high RPM's rolling down the highway. Therfore the bigger bike is more suitable for it.......Learn on an F4i or a 636....Then someday buy u a bigger bike and kill it....=-)

Buddy of mine kills is 07 ZX10 in the lot and on the streets......SICK!!!!!

Yup jus like others said f4i or 636 personally I prefer the f4i for wheelies and all around but the 636 is alot smoother for stoppies

F4i has a shorter balance point. Meaning the front wheel doesnt have to be as high up in order for the bike to balance out. Many peeps like the F4i for that reason. And you can beat the *** outta the F4i's and the 6dirty6's......=-)

With that budget it looks like you'll be lookin for a cracked up F3. I'd spend a lil extra ($2500~$3200) and get an F4i with smashed plastic or other cosmetic damage.

What Northern said, you wont find a f4i or 636 for that price. Just get what you can but try for fuel injected at least.

beginner bike - F2/F3
novice - F4i
advance - 636 929/954
Pro(or know what your doing) - whatever fits you best

- *636 will have tons of low end power but less BP which makes it alittle tricky to work with
- F4i will have less low-end power but it has the BEST BP out of any bike on the market, alot of pros still use it just because of how comfy it rides
- 929/954 are really tricky to ride because of the horsepower and somewhat low BP, think of your 600rr's BP but with more horsepower - they are all around stunt bikes tho, just not a real novice bike
- RR'sare big no no's. people do stunt them (i wheelie my 1Krr alot) but they are the most expensive bikes, low low BP and tons of horsepower - I wouldn't recommend this bike (for a stunt bike)
- gixxers or yamaha HUGE NO NO's. gixxers need to overflow oil so they dont strave, plus some of their frames arent built up to par (i've seen broken frames from a few bad wheelies). For Yamaha's, their sub-frames are weakier then bill gates in an armwrestling contest - If you just touch 12'o'clock, get ready to have your bike's *** end to be turned into a street-fighter look
- pit-bikes, less then 250cc - not the greatest idea for a stunt bike, you might think your playing it safe or saving SOO much money butapit-bike is so low to the ground and no length to it, your not going to have a BP rangeand will usually loop it (which meansyour girlfriend is going to break up with you when she sees your bruised *** thinking you been to somedomaintrix house) anything lessthen250cc's is just notenough power. You can stunt on a dirt-bike but i've heard it aint the same thing (hear-say)

for 1-2 grand, your looking for a F2,F3 and i'm sorry to say but pro stunters have even told me you can go carb. F2/F3's are heavy and dont have tons of horsepower but they are such tanks and can take a beating. I suggest going with a F2/F3 starting out to see if you like the real stunter scene, then upgrade from there (it's not like F4i's and 636's are going to go up in price unless you keep going for the newer ones).

*If your looking for a 636, just remember 05-06's some do have a flaw in their transmission. when your looking around for one, make sure you test ride it because going from 1st to 2nd at high RPM's will throw the bike 9 out of 10 times into netural. it's a faulty transmission and (trust me, i own one) not fun to ride.

ORIGINAL: ZDUB

the 636 is alot smoother for stoppies
also with 636's, replace the stock forks ASAP if performing stoppies..
this is what "could" happen when you use stock forks on stoppies


hope some of this information helps.
