In your opinion, is stunting at a basic level (12's, stoppies etc) a very hard thing to learn? Is it one of those things anyone can do with enough practice?

if it suits your riding style then you will be a natural. However if you ride like me it feels to foreign and you will suck at it.
Yes - anyone can learn it. However mistakes are risky business.
Easiest bike to start stunts on is a trails

I don't stunt - can't afford too!!!!!!!
In stock road trim I give some respect to those who do on their streeters. I'm to chicken arse I'll prang mine!
If you are interested, from what I have read set the bike up right - big arse sprocket on the rear etc.
Read heaps - what's the rear brake for, low tyre pressures, gearing etc.
And buy some crash bars........

Yea well I thought about something cheap and nasty like the cbr600f2 in the setup stunting thread but even though it's cheap, it's also pretty old, so if I end up deciding I'm not up for stunting I've already spent almost a grand (500+250 once repaired) on a bike that won't be a great track bike, or be worth much as a road bike to sell.
