If you want to stunt that bad why not buy an older F4I or something like that.
I have nothing against stunting I think it's pretty sick but if I was to do it I would prolly just get a bike that could take the beating without a problem.

the story is that if your oil is below full then you'll starve the front cyl or a bearing and shortly after the motor is a big paperweight.
Some say yes, some say no. The general consensus is that there are definitely better bikes for stunting.

well, i don't think its going to matter what short comings it has. you don't have enough for a I4 stunt bike, so just go for it. i think a stabilizer would be helpfull though. although if you can scrape together $1500, you can pick up a stunt bike from craigslist.
the stuff you listed can be done and yes it will tear up your bike, but it will tear up any bike. If you check youtube you can find video's of people stunting SV's. The real issuse will be if you can restrain yourself from wheelies, after all a lot of stunt's revolve around them. 12 o'clocks, circules, coasters, stand-ups, tank. I'd guess 80% of stunting involves wheelies.
