how to get started... - Chucklles - 01-30-2008
i want to get started on the stunt scene and picked up a 99 ZX6R to learn on. i got a SI crash cage already and sliders. with money somewhat in mind what are some needed upgrades that i should get first to get started..

you should be all set with just a cage, you could change the gearing, get a subcage, remove your plastics until your decent enough to not mess them up, handbrake after you learn the footbrake,

dont forget a 12 bar espically when learning wheelies and learning that rear brake hitting it too hard slapping that rear end off would suck
Re: how to get started... - Chucklles - 01-31-2008
hahaha... yea dont want to snap off the rear end... i thought about getting a 12 bar and changing out the entire brake lines...
Re: how to get started... - budd (SMF) - 01-31-2008
plastic is more forgiving than a 12 bar, their not really needed until you can slow your wheelies down, its better to break your plastic than your subframe imo

it helps a lil. you can still do wheelies on stock gearing but if you gear it a lil more it helps bring it up.
