Re: What kinda stuff breaks on 636's?
oh yea, and those parts that break on 636s? theyre more expensive and way harder to find.
dope ******* bike though, i wouldnt trade mine for anything. If I was learning all over again id get the F4i to beat it up, and when i got the hang of things get the 6dirty6

people recommended woodcrafts because that's pretty much all there was.... and vortex... those esd's are the new hotness:YEAH I'd like to know how much different they are from the stock footpeg loction.. woodcrafts and vortex generally moved your foot up and further back, which is conducive to racing.

Re: What kinda stuff breaks on 636's?
I was gonna get an F4i but I'm kinda leaning towards a 636 cause I like it more & it's better for rolling sik stoppies. I've heard people say that the 636 is more fragile than the F4i but I've never heard of people saying the kinda stuff that brakes on the 636's?
So I'm gonna learn to stunt (stoppies, idle, eventually circles... and if I got a 636 with a cage, what kinda stuff can I expect to break on a 3/4th fairing(sides but no upper) 636? I've tried searching but not really seein much.
Edit: I'm gonna get a Powers Cage & Powers subframe cage too.

every single tab on that bike will break off if you crash it enough no mater what cage you have, the tank is way close to the clip ons which is really annoying for me since I like spreaders. I don't like 03 636's at all. I'd probably stunt an 05 before an 03 just because it's more comfortable and less compact.

the rear peg brackets on all new bikes are so thin they snap like twigs and the tabs they bolt to bend the first time you drop the bike
this cage has steel peg brackets and they are connected to each other by the loop and that makes it almost impossible to bend the tabs and it also makes the subframe stronger just from it being connected to both sides
i also turn the pegs on there axis so they only fold up if you fold them up not while your doing a wheelie
and on the 600rr i move the pegs out down and back ...600rr's are way to stubby in a stagered wheelie these fix that
ever had a down facing peg that makes you think your slipping off the peg ?...never again with this i do ralph louies in the rain and my foot is planted solid because these don't flex like stock peg brackets
p.s go realy look at your rear pegs and how the are mounted and every thing and you will be surprised what little bit of aluminium you are trusting your life to

tell me if your rear peg brackets would survive this.....lol
my cage did't even think about bending the pegs folded up and the subframe cage put a dent in the asphalt .....

from what i have been told the forks on the 03 04 will brake at the bottom some times cause on some the factory did not tighten them all the way this you can fix though by tightning them up your self
