What should I Get???
I've recently bought a bike (kanata 600), but it sucks and I want to do stunts. What would you think is the best? I have in mind 01 CBR929RR, 00 750 GSXR, 98 900RR. Is anybody out there in the Seattle area that wants to get a stunt club together or is there already one?

i have 929's, but i'd recommend a 900rr because there are more ebay parts for cheaper since the bikes are a little bit older so that saves you on the wallet and they work great. i love doing stoppies on my friends 900rr more thna my 929.
find a salvage bike that only has stupid damage (plastics and stuff like that) nad use it. that's what i did. I see gixxer600's on ebay going for like 2500$ with only like a bent rim and some plastic damage. for around 3500$ total you'd have a sweet stunt bike.

Any of those bikes would be good. But why not thrash your Kanatuna first, then move up to a bigger bike?
There is a crew here in Seattle, SeaTown Riders. I've ridden/hung out with a few of their guys, they all seem cool. I dunno if they are an "official" stunt team or whatever, but they do have some guys that have mad skillz for sure.
Actually there is supposed to be a stunt competition at Pacific Raceways this Sunday. A lot of SeaTown guys are gonna be there. I think it's either at lunch time or after the road racing ends. They're also doing a "taste of racing" thing where you can go do a few laps of the track for like $40. (behind a pace bike, real racing) Check it out!

Binder,
Where u finding parts for a 900rr? I got a gixer just cause its easier to find parts then the RR, i got buds that have to struggle to find parts for those things.
They still need parts so let me know if you come across anything.
Thanks bro

2000 GSXR 750 have some problems w/ trans., and choppy fuel injection and with the frame cracking. It was the first year they came out but they're still a good bike although I'd recommend an 02 although frame is still known to crack. The 900RR has some problems over time with the #3 cyclinder. I've seen this problem numerous of times. I ride a GSXR and love it for all around stunt bike. Although next I'm probably going to get a scotts and buy a 929.

PS-GSXR parts are everywhere on ebay, one more reason to love it. The choice is up to you.
