I've done slow wheelies and no handers on one.. it's fun but a bit tough compared to other bikes

unless its a repsol edition, i wouldn't waste my time stunting it. repsol's are way better for stunting.

Re: is a honda 1000rr a good bike to stunt? PROS/CONS?? PLEASE HELP

I'm kinda glad I learned on liter bikes, made the f4i soo easy when I started riding one. 1000cc bikes can really bite you in the *** sometimes, one little mistaken blip of the throttle in a circle or whatever and your gonna be on your *** before your bike hits the ground. I've definatly learned that 1000cc bikes should not be geared very high. I can do lots of **** on my 1000rr and it's only 2 down in the front, tried a 55 rear and it was way too twitchy. They are way smoother when the gearing is stock.

yeah 1K shouldnt be geared at all. they have enough power to do pretty much anything as is.

I had my R1 2 up and it was wayyy too touchy

I learned on a 929, close to a litre bike. It was great for everything! -1 +5 Get what you like man, and rock it. Something to note tho, parts are gonna be scarce and if your going to stunt, you will need parts

Re: is a honda 1000rr a good bike to stunt? PROS/CONS?? PLEASE HELP

You can stunt any bike.But it depends on what you wanna do with it.If your just going to **** around in parking lots and a little on the streets then the F4i or 636 would be they way to go.If you to do alot of street and highway stuff Id suggest a liter bike.I think the 929/954 is better for stunt riding simply because honda redesigned the geometry of the RR for road race purposes so it gained over an inch in wheelbase and also the motor is moved farther forward which means it has a tighter balance point than the 929/954.

But if I was going to walk into a dealership and buy a brand new bike it would be the 1000RR.I learned on an R1 and that bike is a ***** to learn on.I assume the 1000rr wouldnt be any worse.Other than having a narrow balance point its and great all around bike.

Maybe she is rocking the 1000 and if she is that's great! Anybody can get on the internet and talk ****! Who cares, does it really matter. You got nothing but negative **** to say to most people on here jerkoff!
