I'm taking the opportunity to introduce myself here as a fairly new member. I been reading the boards for a while & I have to say this is one of the coolest message boards I've seen.
I currently ride an SV650s, this is my first bike, I've been riding for a little over a year now, I live in San Diego so I ride year round, I don't drive, the cage belongs to my wife.
Anyways I'm looking into getting a bike to learn how to stunt. I'm thinking of a "Dual Sport type" what would be the best bike to look at, size (CC's) etc?
Any advise anyone has to offer would be greatly appreciated.

welcome man!! honda cbr 900rr is th way to go, great power, very reliable and parts are plentiful for them, good luck!!

 

what that bike u got is great!!!!!! i had it last year it wheelies bannannas in first with just gas and a tug--dam before i wreked out (tank slapper please by a dampner for it) i was scrapin it!!!! endos r ok on it and burnouts were soso-- but wheelies who!!!1 i destroyed 2nd shiftin dam thats your bike rite there cuz

 

Your bike is a good bike to start stunting on. I rode psycho650s bike & it was a blast, real easy to wheelieee.:D

 

I think he's implying that his SV is his plush piece, and he wants something else to destroy

 

Hey any good 600 bike is good. I have a honda f2 and f4i. both are decent to learn on. And Some of south jerzees finest say they are the best stunt bikes.

hope it helps

back before people realized the importance of ability alot of people relied on hp. ie900rr or rpm ie gsxr750 to maintain their wheelies .any f2 or f3 with a good clutch and stock carbs should do ,parts are plentiful and the engines are practically bullet proof.at the end of the day it comes down to the rider and learning on a good running 600 will help more than having a crutch of a high hp. bike.good luck and be safe.rember any idiot can pull a ten oclock power wheelie on an r1 .

 

i agree with either the f2 or f3....the parts for the bike r plentiful...but it is a little bit more forgiving than the 9...i started out on an f2 and just recentley got rid of it when i picked up my 9.....i liked the bike so much that i woulda kept it if i had not of needed the money to upgrade to a 9...in fact i will probably buy another one because i liked it soooo much also it feels like ur ridding a bicycle so its really easy to get comfortable one....just remember dont get TOO comfortable cause thats when u get bit in the ***..lol...o by the way by "9" i mean a rr

 

that was said very well skillz,i couldnt have said it better myself.

 

Cool, thanks for the info.
Right now my main transportation is the SV & I really can't afford to break ( I.E. crash) it. I'll looking the F2/F3, what I looking for was something cheap I could learn to wheelie/stoppie on and if I f*cked it up so be it.

Thanks for everyone's input.

 

exactly...i learned on my 600, its not hard to wheelie, buy yourself an f3-f2 or a 97-00 Gixxer 600 (both you can find parts for all over), and when you move up, you'll have most **** on lock
