im 14 and i started stunting a few years ago on my dirt bike a honda xr80 i can do some stuff like dragbacks seat standers couldnt do stoppies cause i broke the front brake and never fixed it lol but i could do a lot im selling the bike and working a lot this summer and i want to know if i can jump up to a 600 now. can anyone help me? thanks

 

xr80 dirtbike to a 600cc sportbike...yeah I'd say its too much. But you are the only one that knows your own abilities to make the call.

 

well what can i get then it seems in stunting its a 50 or a 600? what is a good size bike for someone about 5 foot 9 and 130 lbm?

 

height really doesnt have a factor.. you can always lower bikes. but id say get a 636 or an f4i:YEAH

 

very true about lowering it and i have to say a f4i is a very cool bike

 

In my honest opinion id say go for it just be responsible and be stupid with it.

 

my first bike was a 600....it just depends on what you feel comfortable on in my opinion...600 is what i learned on ridin and stuntin

 

+1 on the F4i Idea..

 

yeah i will really keep my eyes open for a f4i when i have the money

 

well buddy i dunno where ua re in canada but if ur Ontario i got a f4i for sale..but the subframe is bent to ****...so if u want it...pm me

 

sorry bud but im in NB and i really cant go that far for a bike.

 

I'm 5' 6 and I never had to lower my 06 600rr and I am just fine on it stop being a ***** and ride you never know unless you try!

 

you should ask DURTY for some help, im sure he'll be glad to help you

if you think you'll take it on the streets i'de tell you to wait cause i don't think many 14yr olds are ready for the streets....
My advice is to get a fiddy and stay on here (Stuntlife) for a while AND READ <--- always my advice to anyone.. and read threads from even 2-4 yrs ago cause there is good info everywhere on this site... b4 you think about a big bike...
Always search for answers to your questions b4 asking.. use the SEARCH feature.. trust me..
i learned so much on here that even before i got a bike & now, i could/can school regular riders about certain stuff...

when you do ride the big bike... my best advice that will keep you in one piece is take the time to get use to the bike and familiar to the feel...
i rode all sorts of *****.. raptor 600's, banshees, 2 and 4 stroke dirtbikes... streetbikes are very similar in a way. but still have a whole nother feel, just take the time to get use to it like you would on any other new machine.. caz this one will really really **** you up, or kill you quicker...

HAVE FUN!!

 

+1
im 5'7" and i dont have a problem either.... so u should be fine

you are a big *** 14yrs old...im not calling you fat so dont go emo on me

 

LOL, damn Born, u actually gave some good advice

 

^^^^^ plus one except for the 50. If hes on a 80 does he really need to go down to a fifty? (serious question). Whatever u do please keep it in a lot and off the streets SERIOUSLY (at least till your 16 and u got some 2 wheel skilz. Myself.... I'd probably find something in between what u got now and a 600. You've got PLENTY of time to move up the cc ladder. Or you could fix that front brake on what you got now and MASTER that ****. Goodluck.

 

yeah i don't think im going out on the streets for sometime but the one big problem i have is i live 30 min drive from town and all i have to ride on is dirt so i think i might have to take my bike to town and find a lot.

 

my dad is 6 foot and my grand father was 6 foot 4 so Height runs in the family

 

well i really dont want to keep this bike cause i have put a lot into it and i still have trouble with it and i cant wheelie that much cause A LOT of gas come's out the carb and i realy dont feel like puting much more into it after puting $1000 into it last summer and $3000 into it in the last 3 years thats the only thing that i wouldnt like about geting a f4i is i don't like honda much after what my bike did to me.

 

what bike can i get around the 250 cc range can i get a 12 o clock bar and hand brake for?
