Premium Member username Posted March 3, 2016 Premium Member Share Posted March 3, 2016 R6 throttle tube probably wouldn't hurt along with the Zeus stunt cage.From what I've seen on YouTube you also need a wife beater, khakis, skate shoes and a icon helmet. This is to allow the least protection because people are so good at stunting they never wipe out ;p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha, but in addition to what Username mentioned, also lower tire pressure. If we had metal gas tanks I would have said to dent the top, but we dont. A throttle lock would help. The most important thing though is a hot girl who's willing to sit backwards on the bike wearing a 2 piece while you're on one wheel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beemer Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Just off the top of my head I would say get some steel braided brake lines, fork brace, better brake pads that disperse heat better and maybe some stickier tires. I would mostly get rid of all unnecessary weight but if you're keeping it street legal you're limited - gotta keep the lights, pooh! Oh yeah, stunt women do rock!

cdean911 Posted March 3, 2016 Author Share Posted March 3, 2016 I've added engine case sliders frame sliders front and rear axle sliders to help protection I know it won't help as much as a cage but there pretty expensive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geteup Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 I dont know what he has done to the bike, alot by the way it looks. Look up Stunter 13 on youtube, he does a few routines on an mt-07 87' Honda VFR 700 F2 (sold) 03' Honda CBR F4I (donated) 05' Yamaha R1 (sold) 15' FZ-o7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deflating your tires is pretty cheap too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beemer Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 After watching "Stunter13 YAMAHA MT07 MOTOCAGE LIL PRACTICE" on you tube it appears that weight wasn't a concern so much as having it low geared, I wonder what kind of rear sprocket that was. Different handle bars, grippy grips and he bumped up the idle as well just before taking off. Balls & balance goes without saying. I would bet money he's rode motocross.

Deflating your tires is pretty cheap too What exactly will a throttle tude do for it A throttle tube will make it so when you twist the throttle you won't have to twist your wrist as much. This is good for popping up the front end for wheelies which is good for stunting. I'm getting one also just because it would be nicer to not have to twist your wrist almost all the way around the handle bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The setting should be the same on either one though and give the same performance. I went with the plastic one made by motion pro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I could, I'd ride wheelies all the way home from work everyday! As it is, I can't afford to learn. The price for mistakes is more than I can absorb.

Beemer Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 ornery Thanks for that video. I needed a good laugh and Mr. Dip-sh*t in the shorts @ 1:36 made it happen. I've never seen anyone tackle a street light (@ 2:40 ) oooouch!! ;-| Beemer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're going to do that stuff on a civilian street, then you deserve the consequences. I like watching wheelies; who doesn't? But man, there's a time and place...

I totally agree and I'll laugh at the ones I know will live through some much deserved road rash. I ask myself, why should they be allowed to get away with acting stupid while the rest of us have suffered and learned from doing it when we were young & dumb? Bring on the videos!

ornery Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 My heart sinks when I watch bikes tumbling. I bet the repair costs hurt worse than the bruises and rash. It would me anyway.
