I am fully aware that those bikes share VERY little in common with a bike straight off the showroom floor. Jesus christ, what self respecting race follower and track rider DOESNT??!!

Heres an amusing tidbit, when Team Jordan requested some of these "special" parts, Mike Jordan was informed he didnt have the MONEY to purchase this stuff.

So yeah, not stock bikes, OMG for real? They're racing jacked up superbikes??!! Are you serious??!! Here i was thinking they had one just like me...

However, their bikes are made to be ridden as hard as they ride them AND they have the skills to take a showroom floor bike and ride it to the limit. A good WERA or CCS racer can most likely do the same. But you? I? Joe Blow from off the street? No. Not in a hundred years.

And riding a bike the way it was designed is not abuse. Race bikes and street bikes have TONS more potential than any street rider will ever be able to use. I dont know where you are getting that from...

Stoppies, wheelies, stunting in general? Thats not what the bikes were designed for. A stunt bike, yes, its been modded to be that way. A regular run of the mill, stock bike, no. You cant even argue that stunting is what Honda or Suzuki or Yamaha had in mind when they designed these bikes.
lol, the only parts required to "mod" a stunt bike are rashed plastics, a dinner plate sprocket, and a crash cage. boom, done. anything you add to a stunt bike only DECREASES its rideability.
