Are 2000-2002 Ninja ZX6R's good to stunt????

Im looking at getting one and just wondering how easy they are to stunt compared to other bikes. Ive never ridden or stunted one. I ride an 01 R6 now. The R6 is very touchy on the throttle so im looking for something easier to play with. Plus the R6 is clean and dont want to bash it. Does the ZX6r have a low balance point or high compared to the R6? Im just wondering about stunting the bike and how easy or hard it is compared to others. Thanks

strong subframe, strong motor...carbs suck, weak rear sets (cage fixes that) lower bp than an r6, throttle isnt touchy

Hope to find out soon, mine is almost done! I don't have the damper on it yet, but the tabs are already on the frame. I know I got out on it yesterday after we got done with tuning the carbs (mine sat for 3 years, so carbs were varnished bad), and it comes up real easy just on power. Then again, I don't have anything on the front. I haven't even played at the balance point yet...I kinda want to wait til the 12 bar is on it, just in case I get a little over zealous!

My friend has a Gixxer1k and my r6 is a lot more touchy than his bike. His bike has a lot more power but its smooth power. The r6 is jerky power.
