99 zx6r for a stunt bike

Don't do it. Frame will crack for sure!! Cage doesn't help, it'll save the motor but brake everything else around it.

Re: 99 zx6r for a stunt bike
its a solid bike and a cool bike to learn on.. put on a cage and cut like 2 inches off the pegs..
after the bike is trashed.. sell it to someone else who wants to learn and buy a nicer newer bike

Re: 99 zx6r for a stunt bike
your gonna get mixed responses, but Listen to Thomas, he used to rock one hardcore.
All the ones I've seen get stunted were tanks, they held up to alot, never saw a frame crack either.

Got a 2000, but i'm not very hard on it 
Couldn't find a cage i liked so we made one... and the bar as well. chop the levers and pegs a lil... and check the bolts on the subframe. Mine were loose as hell

Re: 99 zx6r for a stunt bike
the frames usually only crack if your motor mounts are loose and you slam the bike down alot , the motor is most of the support for the frame
i learned on a 98 and it took alot of beating but i did crack the frame ...lol

Re: 99 zx6r for a stunt bike
ok sell that bike for 2 k and buy a newer nicer bike for 4k
trash the new bike learning over the next year and then sell it for 2k and buy a new bike...
or
buy a cage for the zx6.. trash it learning this coming year.. then sell it for 2k to someone else who wants a starter stuntbike.. and then buy a nicer bike after you have learned a bunch of **** and have it for a while looking and running mint!

Is there a specific cage i should be looking at that will work better on my bike? Or any other ways to reinforce the frame?

Re: 99 zx6r for a stunt bike
ive seen f4i frames crack...
Ive seen gsxr frames crack
and yes i have cracked a zx6r frame...
its all relavent.. if you already knew how to stunt and were purchasing a bike and they were all the same price.. yeah get a better bike
but since you already own the bike and its not really worth much anyways.. stunt it.. trash it.. learn on it.. and then buy some newer ****
it is a very very capable bike
order a 905 cage
make your own bar if you can
cut the drivers pegs down some...
order a -1 and +6 sprocket set
and tear that **** up
the frame cracks right above the air duct holes
when it finally cracks.. take off the tank and go get it welded

Re: 99 zx6r for a stunt bike
Thanks for the post Thomas, I also have a 99 zx6r, I just recieved my cage a 905(looks solid), went 14/52 gearing, made a pretty ghetto scrape bar(footage of the carnage is coming) waiting on a foot peg bracket, and have a back up sub frame on the way. I'm not any good yet, so I figured destroy this bike learning, that is why I got it. Then up grade.
