stunt setup
I was just wondering what kind of tweaks will be helpful for stunting to do on my bike like gear ratio, suspension setup, etc... I just bought a 750 katana and i want to set it up for stunting so that whenever i start getting a little better i'll already be used to a stunt setup

Re: stunt setup
instead of making two threads; one of making a 12 bar and another of stunt setup you could put it all in one and if they dont make stuff for that bike its for a reason. keep the katana to learn how to ride and save up for a better stunt bike it will be worth the wait.

Re: stunt setup
Exactly! you don't need an F4i or 636 to stunt ride, you just need a working bike and it setup comfortable for you...

Re: stunt setup
I got the impression he didn't have a spare $3000+ to get an F4i? neva know if he's got the coin then get a new bike problem solved, maybe you could even get onto a CBR900rr or something a little older and cheaper (but more of a sports bike than the big K) then learn on that then get something newer...
(then again I don't live in the US and have no Idea how much an F4i is worth... just going by a rough conversion from here)If not stunt what you got, my point is that you don't need an F4i or 636 to stunt ride, these days people seem to think you can only stunt on 600's and 1000's are too twitchie? what happened to throttle control

Re: stunt setup
That bikes really not worth putting money into to stunt bro. There heavy, underpowered and carberated. You want a fuel injected bike. With your bike your gonna stall on 12's. My buddy had one of those there not good bikes. They can't take abuse. If you can't afford an F4i or a 636 mabey sell it and buy an old cbr600 f2 or f3? These bikes are still carberated but alot better stuntbikes. F2's don't have a fuel pump so they stall on 12, but f3's have a fuel pump and can 12 them fine just not run for very long on the bar. I had a F2 that I used o stunt it was a good bike. If you want to get one and have advice or questions about them send me a pm and I'll help you out. But katanas are bad news bro.

I don't have photoshop but I may have an idea that involves a camera and a trip to the local brickyard
