I have an 04 GSXR 600 and I want to start stunting. Nothing to crazy, just some slower standups. I want a cage and a 12 bar (Freestyle Ingenuity) but I'm not sure what gearing I should use. I still want to be able to ride on the streets when I'm not stunting and don't want to loose all my top end. Would a stage 2 gearing set work for me or should I go with the street stunting set. Also where can I pick up all the things I need for a good price?

Thanks

get your subframe reinforced A LOT, it bends like tin foil without. +10 gearing is decent.

i just got done watching a certain video and you should

(whisper)
"pssst, go 2 down on the front sprocket and 2 up in the rear"

John LegionST

-2 sounds good but i think a +2 rear is a waste of money. Front sprokets are CHEAP, get a -1, -2, and -3 (All will fit with the stock rear and chain) and try each, but if you still want to rock decent on the street you'll prolly want no more than the -2. that would be fine for learning BP, rear brake control and how to slow down wheelies.

dont think you can just get gears and jump into a parkinglot if you start to stunt your going to stunt the bike cant be saved cage aside **** will brake parts will get replaced cant have a minty bike starting out

I'm well aware that I'm not going to just start throwing down circle wheelies just because I changed some ****. My Bike is far from minty, I just want to protect it the best i can since it's my only bike.

might wanna get a oil pick up also.

Yeeah - Other than the cage that is the most important thing.

oil pick up - stuntex.com

unless you have about a 1000 dollars lieing around for a new motor.

Can you still use the oil pickups when your just riding around or should you only use a pickup on a bike that you only use for stunting?

KF_Chris

they're ok for all use. not so much for racing but they work on the street fine.

o0r trade your bike in for a 600rr or F4i or 636 cause your going to end up wanting one in a few months any ways

John LegionST

Im still not sold on the idea that a stuntbike needs an oil pickup! Only blown two motors, one cause i did a burnout while the bike was on the bar (DUMBA$$) and two cause i was doing high RPM spreaders down the highway on an already hurt gix1000...

With the HB you can keep Rpm's low and therefore save you motor... went all last season and most of the '04 season on the same gix 600 motor which are notorious for blowing... i just think it's the rider and riding style, not the motor!

mikkee

What he is saying may be true, but I'd rather be safe than sorry.

$60 oil pickup

$800+ for a motor

your choice..

It also makes the bike run smoother for wheelies on idle.

John LegionST

I hear ya and agree, better safe than sorry. Im just too lazy to get the pickup and to put it in! LOL

Now if a company was going to give me one... i would definately run it and promote them!
