I just bought an F4 with F4i seat and subframe. ive got a lot of heat coming through my seat area, even when moving. anyone know of a way to mod the bike to get rid of some of the heat? im thinking some sort of custom heat shield. anyone experience this kind of problem?

 

yeah thats happen to me too when i bought the bike i guess i got usto to it because i cant feel it now at all.

what do u mean?

 

Does anyone have any detailed information about doing this sort of conversion from an F4 "single seat" to the F4i "solo" seats configuration? Is a new sub-frame required to make it work properly? I assume that new rear body work is required, too, right?

 

all u need is the subframe, then the two seats plus the back fearings basically the hole f4i back then u need to wheld some brakets or do something with the rectifier, and the fuel pump. decause they dont fit on the f4i subframe.

 

thanks for the responses
heres a pic of the conversion

that bracket for your exhaust is ugly. but love the tail

 

What happened to your pass foot pegs? Wouldn't mounting it like that throw off some sort of balance while the bike is in motion? I'm glad you took my advice and put up some pics, personally I think the F4's 'bulkyness' with that seat makes it look more how a sportbike 'should look'. It's truly one of a kind and no other bike compares to it's looks... Other than that you might want to try a rear tire-hugger, the one that has a chaingaurd built into the part where it overhangs the tire...

 

thanks for the responses. yeah, im getting a hugger for it soon, i have since moded the tail light to an integrated kit and cut more of the undertail off. i am getting an untertail kit too, to further reduce the rear end mass... i agree, the stock f4s are too bulky looking.
i will post some pics when done
