Im a die hard bike fan and very keen to learn stunts.after a lot of discussion I bought a Apache RTR 160 last year.
Is this bike ok for learning stunts? I tried for someday but I am not able to pull up a wheelie thats high enough, and the rtr tyre has not got good grips so its very difficult to do stoppies on it, Some people suggesting a FZ or a p135, I cant buy the fz now as it got very low mileage and p135 is not good a long tours(I have 2 tours a year thats almost 2000kms around). what what should be done? I have seen many guys doing rolling stoppies on rtr, but im not sure if they do change the tyre. |

You have to be on one side buddy!
Mileage, touring and stunts just do not go hand in hand. The best option for you is to train yourself as per your beast or maintain another vehicle( layman's beggar description) Touring around 2000kms riding an FZ or P135 sounds sooo anti-bummish!

RTR is indeed good for stunting. Do proper sprocketing, You'll pop a wheelie very easily. And invest on correct riding gear while stunting.
