1996 cbr 600

What do you guys think of this as a stunt bike I have an oppurtunity to pick this bike up so I was going to use it for stunting. Is there any specific problems to look out for when your buying these bikes also.

just make sure its in good shape mechanically wise...... i think the only problem for you is that when you drop the bike itll take a while to start back up cause the carbs will be flooded.. if you wanna get indepth w/ the F2 or F3 is it? there is alot of forum members that pimps the older CBR's

dude i love my f3 it is a wonderful stuntbike that runs great stock and then if you wanna switch your gears just a little it will be poping up like no other. pretty strong brakes but not near the new bikes, but it has a WONDERFUL frame and they are very tough, if you drop it, it will flood but **** that just pop start the bike after that and it will run perfect again.

the '99 f4 is good, but I have a problem with it flooding the airbox with fuel when I practice endos over and over.. thats prolly a carb thing mostly. Try -1+3 and your set

I stunt a 96 F3...love it. A tad heavy but you can still get nasty on it. Needs some gearing...I rolled with +6 for a while and recently put on a -2 as well....she will come up fast now!
