Yea his typo "stich" made me read switch instead of stick, which made me think he was saying that he'd do the f4i banana seat as opposed to the split seat. Spell check is your friend and usually eliminates confusion.

sounds like a pita think ill stich with the ole bananna seat its super comfy any way thanks for the info

I have NEVER seen anyone use them except myself and theres no advantage at all apart from i wone them for £5 on ebay because the seller had listed them as CB 600 headers by mistake and didnt know what year bikes it was off.

They have to be modiffied to fit which includes cutting the mounting bracket off the F3 headers and using it to bolt the F4 headers to the block and because the angle the end of it sits at its hard to get a normal can to sit normally from the peg with it.

Yes but im torn between 2 or 3 different designs as moment so not gunna rush into it until im sure and ive allso seen that people have started replacing paint jobs with full body vinyl raps wich look the same as a paint job but offers alot more protection as it doesnt chip and that so gunna look more into that first as well.
