so im debating turning my 95zx6r into a stunt bike, any recomendations or things to watch out for on the older model? i bought the bike a with 4+ on the rear sprocket so its already quite the wheelie machine, just looking for some input if anyones got it.

 

dude, no offense, its old, its a tank, but anything can be done..

when doing bar tricks, the carbs will bog it out, thats pretty much the only down fall

circles can be rocked on anything, just be safe!

 

You might want to put a rear brake lever on the handlebars. That way you can do some wild wheelies and still cover your rear brake. And of course, get the frame sliders and a cage.

 

+1. Find a fuel injected bike for stunts. The carbureted bikes have too many fuel supply/ starvationor floodingproblems for doing stunts; especially 12 o'clock wheelies & stoppies.

 

i am thinkin about doin the same to my 98, but it's carbed too. i've had her up for awhile and didn't starve her of fuel BUT i wasn't ridin no 1 min wheelies. i've heard that you should get a longer oil pickup or bend the stock one backwards because you DO NOT wanna run it dry of oil. i've heard of and seen older bikes stunted so i don't really think it should be a big deal...especially in the learning stages. i'd get dirtbike handle bars so you can tank wheelie easier (actually get ur legs under the bars)and it's suppose to be easier to wheelie cause ur leaning further back to start with. let us know how it goes and post some pics.

 

Wear all your gear. We don't want any calamari

 

the frames break easy on those too

 

thanks for the input everyone. i need to find a stunt cage and 12 bar for her, but i may have to have them made. i also need to clean the carbs out as it is but i can def tell their bogged down. and gear everytime i ride. well helmet and gloves atleast.
