Well, i was going to pickup that gixxer..then the guy dinked around with the title. Was gonna pickup felix's 636, but things have came up there out of either of our control.
So looks like im gonna go to the darkside and head to the dealer. Got an 02f4i, and 00 929 for about the same prices. What do you guys feel is a better stuntbike.....it'll be a street ridden stuntbike, but in every essence of the word, a full on stunter.
blow it up....let me know your opinions.

f4i
geared f4i's suck balls on the highway. if you only doing city/back roads when you are on the street then it's cool.

any particular reason? I have had both in the past...so i physically have ridden both. But the 929 was way wayyyy before i was into stunting, so i dont have a clue how it handles the slow stuff, but i do remember how awesome the stoppies were...seemed effortless.
The f4i was my first stunt bike and it just liked to chill at at balance point...but like i said...im still new to stunting, so i would like some opinions.
if being the best stunter u can be with the least amount of effort is what you are looking 4 then i would go f4i .riding a 929 on the street is way more enjoyable though. 929 motor is crap , 929 subframe crap , but riding an f4i is boring as hell i would rather watch grass grow

yeah i knew 929 subframes were weak... but i can tig up some gussets myself, so thats not a big deal... biggest thing im worried about is how the bikes actually perfecorm. Im def new to the stunt game, so i want something thats pretty managable. The 929 was def a blast on the streets, but i want a dedicated stunter, just with tags on it

we dont have lots... Its kinda shitty, but ppl that ride up here dont like to share... so it will mostly be back roads. Im not worried about what the bike has for power at 120mph. I've been on the streets for a while. ive had my highspeed fun. Ive had my crashes to. Its time to slow it down a little. gear up a few teeth, learn some circles, and once in a while, throw on the stock gearing, and cruise down the kangamangus (excuse my spelling). Sure its fun to blast the triple digits..... but its gets old. at least to me.

f4i.... much smoother when on idle, bulletproof..... exspecially if you gear it minimal...like one down and like 6 up.. you will love the bike for the street... look at joe brown killin the streets on the white and red f4i in servin it up 3

I DONT THINK SO, IVE NEVER HAD MOTOR PROBLEMS. IVE ONLY GONE THROUGH ONE MOTOR IN 4 YRS. THE SUB-FRAMES ARE A GOOD DESIGN TOO, UNLESS YOU PUT ONE OF THOSE GAY BARS ON THE BACK THEN ITS MURDER. ID RATHER SMOKE GRASS THAN WATCH IT GROW.
