What's the best bike to start stunting on?

I know this has probably been discussed before, but I'm relatively new around here. So what do you guys, and girls, think is the best model for someone to start on as far as making it a little easier to learn.

Re: What's the best bike to start stunting on?

A cheap crunchy one that crashes good.


LOL i started on an f3, but rode a new r6 last weekend, and could pull longer ones on it that my OWN BIKE. Super f'ing smooth. They shoul come with a yellow sticker on the side that says "wheelies for dummies"

seriously, i dunno if it was a fluke or what, but very little throttle in 2nd, tug the clutch for maybe a second,let out, its up...then its just a steady hand and click click thru the gears(granted i want at BP, but still carried it a LONNNG way). Afterwards i got on my bike and it felt notchy as ****. I kept dabbing rear brake, and working the throttle.

Id never buy a new bike to stunt tho....I like honda for there reliability, and 600's are plenty for most. Maybe an F4i if you have the bones?? think there is one on here in the classifieds for 2000 check it out.

sorry for the book. whatever you get ROCK it!!! :YEAH
