big vs. small

Ok well I know there are things in life where the saying "Bigger is better" works, but can someone compare and contrast Bigger vs. Smaller (Bikes ) and the benifits and drawbacks of the two. I have a 1000 and it's not that big other than the engine and wheelbase being a little longer. The point of this thread is because I want to start doing slow stunting and some highway stunting but I don't want to keep the bike I have if there is somthing to be said about a better bike/setup. Thanks in advance.

Read some of the posts on here and you'll have your answer....99% of the topics on here are about 636's and f4i's not 1000's....I wonder why

Re: big vs. small

Throttle control is harder to master on a liter bike. If you're a bigger guy, the extra wieght won't matter TOO much. Overall, liter bikes are more expensive to stunt. The initial price to buy the bike is normally more, and stunt parts can be harder to come by. Rock what you got, unless you have some extra kizzy.....

Re: big vs. small

Hey thanks for the advice anyone got any links to Fighterd out 05-06 GSXR 1000s? Thanks in advance and feel free to flame me on the boards for being so new. I have used the search feature and find that I don't get good results.
