Same offer was made here....only took about 5 minutes to determine it make a GREAT track bike but a shity stunt bike. It may be good if you can dent in a plastic gas tank, could find spare parts, were only 5'5", and ditch the tail exhaust.

The only person that can honestly answer this question though is someone that has put at least a good month of riding on one and can back it up with facts.

I know 2 ppl who kinda stunt these, just some highway wheelies and endoes. They have no problem w/ those, bike comes up in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd w/o clutch. But I will say that the bars are prett low like the ducs. I say race it don't stunt it.

The plastic gastank is the only real problem. You can still put a bar on one. Just have to chop the pipe a little. RyanPBZ had one and really liked the way it wheelied.

Oh yeah, the rear peg is in a really weird position to stand on too.

Aight Suckas!!! i own a 03 Cbr600rr its a Freakin bad *** bike. Sorry though its about the last bike you would want to stunt.

Reasons:
Seating position (very agressive and front heavy)
Center exhaust (ehhh.. no 12's for you)
the bike also weights a lot its umm...445(wet)416(dry)

Heres the killer though honda designed this bike to be as race ready as possible. They put a lot of weight in the front of the bike for the reason that they specificly did not want the front end to come up. (which makes a lot of sense for track racing) im guessing that because of the odd weight distribution it has a pretty odd balance point. (thats just a guess though)

good track bike... naaa Awesome track bike
=
Bad stunt bike

The 600rr is defentily the last bike you want to stunt on. My friend has one. The front is so light, it feals like it can do some serious bar slappin. Although i would say it is a great bike to race. It dipps into turns nicely, if you are into that sort of thing.

I have a 600rr and I love to stunt it...granted it is not the best for 12's due to the undertail exhaust but that bike has a sweet balance point to it. The tricky part is getting it to come up smooth...the front end is so heavy that you really need to give it to get it up.

As far as racing capabilities...bar far the best bike Honda has built...the bike takes itself through the corners...
