Default RE: Installed new bars

The F4i forks are 43mm so you have to find a bike that also has 43mm forks. The Honda CBR1100xx has 43mm forks but I am not having any luck finding bars from that bike. I'm going to have to start hitting the salvage yards. I can't see spending $250+ for bars yet!

I think I'm gonna scrap the dirtbike bars idea for now. It seems like I'll need new cables and such. I'm just gonna try and find some interceptor bars or maybe just go with genmar risers and leave it at that.

It'll help if I get the corbin seat shaved down a bit, it has a big hump at the front of it. It's a very strange seat shape for this bike. If I could soften up the factory seat just a bit, it'd work. Maybe a slab of silicone in below the cover would work to make it a gel seat.

Dammit, I love the f4i, but the seat is borderline hard and flat.
