Thats a cool video, I watched all 3 in the series on U-tube. Craig Jones is nuts.

I was watching Superbikes on the speed channel the other day and there is this stunt bike rider in NY that rides what I think is some Honda superbike and he has to weld plates and supports all in the frame because during heavy stunt maneuvers the frame twists, bends and begins to crack at that welds.

To my knowledge Craig Jones doesn't have to do that to his Buells, they are basically stock bikes with a few skid plates and protective equipment. Am I correct in saying that? If thats the case, why would you want to ride a bike such as a Honda with such a crappy frame?

I subscribe to "stuntlife". The Hondas are the best stunt bikes,for sure. Although it is common to have replace rear subframes. The GSXR's are the "FRAMEBREAKERS", and the Kawa 636 has front fork tube breakage, when rolling stoppies. The yamahas are the lightest, thus making them the most fragile, therefore few people stunt them. I'll put some pics up later.

The Suzuki was crashed so a broken frame doesn't surprise me, but that Kawasaki...

I've never been a Kawi fan and that photo sure doesn't do anything to change that! It's such a great photo because it was taken at the perfect moment. He's still in perfect stoppie form and the fork tube must have just broken because fluid is still pouring from it.

Jwhite601: Where can I find out about "Stuntlife"?
