636 milage?
after finding a sweet stock 636 to convert to a stunter for 2500 euro.. thing is, it has 25,000 miles on the clock! my last 1 had only 8,500 miles when i converted it.. is that too much milage to go stunting with?

Just make sure its had its major service that it should have at 24k to check the valve clearances and it should be fine, nice find anyway man what year is it?
My F4I is on 40k and it gets hammered with limiter burnouts all the time and its happy as larry

25,000 is usually when a sportbike motor is peaked out, in my opinion. I only have like 1,500 on my 636...I would try to get a newer motor, or just completely go through it, valves, clutch etc.. But kawi motors are pretty indestructible, so it will probly be alright for stunting, just keep an extra quart of oil in it.

All jokes aside, i'd stick with it. Just keep a eye out for a new motor. Pick em up cheap enough if you look and only take a few hours to swap.
