Title: gs500 stunt bike?
Post by: suzuki gs500f on May 03, 2006, 11:51:20 AM
Does anyone know if there are any 500 stunt bikes out there? A friend and I are prepping my bike to make it a stunt bike. We are going all out on parts for it. I just wonder if anyone stunt their 500 as well?

stunting a gs is kinda rediculous... not enough power really... stunt bikes need more umph... i'd say look for at least 90-100 hp so you dont have to stunt with such effort (getting yoru nose up and stuff).  Anyways... not a big fan of stunting really... just bangs up sweet bikes...

p.s.  getting your nose up in the air is really bad for your bike... starves it of oil

Kid Nicky, where the hell have you been? I was about to put out an APB on your ass.

I was worried that you tried something like what this guy's thread is about and got hurt. Glad to hear you're OK...or as OK as Teflon Nick can be.  :thumb:


Dave  :cheers:

na dont worry i aint doing anything like that, just been really busy with my fb. anyways, I dont stunt no more, i used that before i joined this wonderfull forum and let me tell u dont do it, i got pulled over by a cop and got a nice ticket. the officer told me that i was lucky he was in a good mood, because he could have taken me to jail.
ps. was standing of my bike with my arms stragith across, i dont believe in poping the front weell.

Hmmm, that's not as reassuring as I'd hoped. Well, at least you're ok.

shhhhh....don't say anything to those who race their GS's professionally and/or semi-professionally (or just for fun at the track)....I don't think *they've* heard about the GS not being powerful enough!  :o :icon_mrgreen:

He's just not telling us that the race only lasted 1/4 of a block (and then the Corvette blew its engine).  :icon_mrgreen:

we were racing, i lost him with the other cars, eventually he passed me , but he didnt pass my friend.
Title: Re: gs500 stunt bike?
Post by: My Name Is Dave on May 06, 2006, 09:43:00 PM
Well almost any bike can take a normal street car off the line. The next 395 meters are another story...

And it depends on the Corvette. My '79 was about as constricted as they get. Straight stock, a 350 small-block with like half as many horses. '74 was the last year they had balls...if I remember right.

So either way, stop racing on the street, Kid Nicky!

i actually thougth about this for a wile and and yes the gs could become a good stunter bike. u just got to put the right mods. I mean its a cheap bike, the engine is almost indistructible or so i read some were and u can stunt with any bike, u dont have to lift the front tire to do it. just do it in a safe are aka a parking lot. hey their is a video on youtube.com search for gs500
ps. hey my dad sayd that he managed to lift the weal of my bike a little bit(my is bone stock still   :cry:, i hate paying for bills) any one else done this 2.
