Default Just bought my f3.... man shes fast ....

Hey all...

as the title states .. just bought an f3 .... love it ... hauls ***....... I was wondering if anyone had any information on an f4i cluster swap...

Congrats on the bike!! Glad to have another F3 on the road to represent us.

Not to be a dick, but search the forums. Both of those questions have been debated several times over. In fact, there's even how-tos that walk you through DOING both of them.

I have an F3 as well. I just recently replaced the sprockets and chain. The pervious owner changed them to -1 on counter shaft sprocket and +2 on the rear. I liked it so much I kept the same ratios. If you think stock ratios get up and move you are gonna' love this change. There are a couple of "how to" write ups posted here as well if you are so inclined.
Enjoy your F3.

-1/+2 seems to be the most popular setup.

I think he is talking wheelies, especially since he loves having the +5 on the rear.
