Stuntbike opinion?

I know you guys probably get a lot of these, but I'm looking for some direction on a stuntbike. I was looking to get something wrecked or salvaged to stunt... something the I obviously don't care about droppring. However I'm not sure what size to get. I currently ride a 929. I was thinking that I need to at least get a 750 or bigger, but then again I've never geared a bike before. I'm 6'2 so the smaller bikes are small to me. But I've heard if you start small its easier to go to a bigger bike. Any thoughts or opinions? I really want to start stunting pretty hard core this year. Thanks.

exactly what he said......929 and 900 rr are used mostly for stunting......excellent balancing point etc. If you are serious about stunting, get one of those, all the guys that have them love them

Yeah but its in perfect condition, i wanted to find something else cause i'd go all out on something i didn't care about... Thanks though, I'll keep my eye open for another 929. What do you guys use to gear the 929 for slow wheelies and 12's?

Learn with stock gears, then once you have the brake control down, gear the hell out of it.... As far as how much you could rock some **** -1 +10 or close to that.
