Is an R6 a good stunt bike???
I am looking for a stunt bike and came across a 2000 r6 for a good price. I consider myself and experienced high speed rider but i want to stunt now. So I need a good beginner bike i wont want to upgrade for at least 2 yrs.

not sure if its only the new ones, but i rode an 04 and it had throttle lag, which was annoying at times.

ive also seen many crashes when a simple wheelie got looped and the bike tumbles down the road.(both r1's and r6's)

if you can get aN R6 at a good price snag it.. anything is stuntable, can't stand as much abuse as other bikes, but just get a cage you'll be fine
