^^^ ya I know like every sport you're gonna spend money as so far having the bike I've spent some cash already, you save on truck and trailer and gas but you pay for it in tires, brakes ect lol. Like I said its not so much the money saving as it is the convenience of practicing and hitting up spots. A lot easier on a bike then it is a car. I'm just looking foward in learning something new, get my mid of the drifting for a little.
And for dude posting just to post, don't be that guy. Start your own post and go from there.

Ya I ride mine everyday. Sold truck, trailer, car, tons of wheels and tires.... Now just the bike and wife's car.
Im looking for all the stunt goodies now. The cage, second brake set up, spraket & chain, 12 o clock bar, and whatever else I may need. I need to get a new clutch for my bike now, shit is crapping out on me. Did a few wheelies and it went to poop.
I take this on as I did drifting and my cars but any advice will be awesome.... When it comes to drifting I changed to a beefy clutch to handle the clutch kicks drifting had to offer, now is that the same case in stunting? What clutch kits are out there that are good yet affordable?

Just using stock clutch.

Careful getting a HD clutch because the springs are much stiffer and that will fatigue a clutch hand quick. You can install an easy pull clutch lever or do a clutch mod to overcome the new found tension if you choose that route. I started stunting last year on an oem clutch from 04 and it hasn't slipped even once pulling up 3rd gear wheelies on close to stock gearing.

You NEED a cage, 12 bar, and some sort of passenger peg support if you weigh over 150lbs. Other than that drop one in the front up 5 in the back and learn with your foot brake first. It will make you better in the long run. Flip your clip-ons left to right and adjust them out flat. Lower your rear tire pressure to like 20psi to nail down the straight line stuff and gradually increase psi to start steering and dipping in to semi circles lol.
