w/ experience and skill anything can be stunted anywhere.

600's are cool anywhere. not as easy to rip up as a 1k on the freeway but are very doable

I'd say bring it up in 2nd and if you're going to balance it out and ride it w/ traffic at 65-70 then you can chill in 2nd. if you're good at shifting and balancing then shift to whatever gear you want.

When my bike was stock I could bring it up in 3rd at 70 mph on the freeway....it was hard as hell but doable.

once I geared it 1 down 2up it would come up in 3rd easy and 4th like it used to in 3rd.

Just take your time and learn all the ways of bringing the bike up. bouncing, clutching, rolling off and on, etc. Whatever becomes most comfortable for you keep practicing it....once you can balance than try other things.

edit* as far as riding them goes alot of people on this site can ride standups forever. I get really tired after 5-6 miles at 65mph
It's all time man. If you put in the time and be safe you'll get it

You should have no problem bouncing, clutching, or using the on & off method to get it up in second. Like Sillyneck said once you hit balence point and can keep it thier you should be able to go until you run out of gas. I used to think that I was at balance point becuase I was going about 3/4 of a mile as I sped up. Now I bring it up at about 60-65 and keep it going 65-70 only put it down when my legs get tired. Take it slow and work on it, you'll get it.

back when i used to do freeway wheelies...i had stock gearing on an R6 and i would bounce it up in 2nd and shift to 3rd right when i brought it up. Freeway wheelies for miles.

it is all about skill. when i 1st started riding last year, i had a 2002 R1 power machine. My dumb *** couldn't get it up on the highway cause my technique was garbage. once i learned to bounce it and roll the throttle it was on. I have seen people get stock 600's up in 4th gear. (Merk from CC)

I bounced my stock 6 hun up in 2nd at about 65mph... now i'm -1 in the front, i can bounce it up at about 55mph and go... like everybody else says, once you hit balance point, you can do whatever you want...

2nd or 3rd gear down the freeway. You can bring a stock 600 up in 3rd with practice.
