Whats up guys? I'm new to stunting, Ive had a few bikes but never wanted to try stunting until recently. Ive been trying to find some places in the Tupelo, MS area to stunt. There used to be somewhat of a stunt scene but nobody does it anymore that I know of. I might possibly be moving to Jackson, TN so maybe I'll have some more luck I met a couple of cool guys that actually stunt in the Jackson area so if I cant come up with anywhere in Tupelo hopefully I can get into it more in Jackson if/when I move. I just wanna say props to all the stunters out here and out there you guys got balls and It takes a hell of a lot more skill to pull off slow technical wheelies and combos than it does to just pin the throttle and go fast down a curvy road or any of that other shit after 100 mph. Heres a pic of my bike lol. Its a work in progress.
I ended up with it as part of a trade, clear title, just needs a rear tire, fork seals and a front wheel. I think Its got a 55t sprocket so it has no prob getting the front wheel up lol. I'm still learning alot about control and working the throttle brake etc. The hardest part is finding time to go out and practice and finding somewhere where someone doesnt run me off.

Will do, Im sure those "how does this work" threads get old when you see the same thing every day from a different person.
