Let me clarify something here. First off yes this site promotes safe riding. This means obeying the laws, wearing the proper gear, keeping you bike in proper working order etc..
That being said there more then a few of us, who either race, participate at Track days, go to races. These types of events are dangerous, yet they are in a controlled environment. Stunting, done in a controlled environment and not on public roads should not be looked down upon. The one difference with stunting is that a lot of the tricks strain the integrity of the frame as well as other mechanical parts.
