yeah stock the F4i has around 100HP the 05/06 RR should be around 110-115 and the RR is lighter
and btw the F4i and RR engines are not the same, who told you that?

Ok let me set everyone straight. the rr and the f4i do NOT have the same engine. the rr is built for racing and has about 10-15 more HP. if you took a stock rr and a stock f4i the rr will freaking dust it! the f4i weighs more and has less horsepower. I know you F4i guys love your bikes and you should they are great rides but they are not equal to the RR, if it was a faster better bike than why do they cost less?

lol I'm just telling you Honda hasn't used the same engine for 5 years on two different bikes, i mean I just went out and looked at my 02 F4i and 03 RR side by side and they are NOT the same engines. They have similar specs and are both I4's but that doesn't mean they are the same engine.
bruingoal6: the F4i was made for racing too, it was Hondas 600 racebike in 01-02 (as was the F4 before it, the F3 before that, etc...) I think miggy won a championship on it, but that was long before I got into bikes. Honda continued to produce the F4i because they needed an middle ground bike, like the katana, YZF600R, etc so they added a more comfortable seat and left it in production to compete with the bikes mentioned before. I ride an F4i on the track and its still a very capable bike
and tahoe your right I looked up some RR dyno's and they are more like 107-110 (hopefully the 07 will catch up to the Suzuki and Yamaha)

hey woody, don't forget the suckiness of cali bikes with less HP than that!
"I know you F4i guys love your bikes and you should they are great rides but they are not equal to the RR, if it was a faster better bike than why do they cost less?"
nope they aren't equal and are bred for different things...cost doesn't have anything to do with "better or faster"...that is straight up biker boy squid talk!
it's all about the rider mang...watch it next time you get smoked by an F4i....oh but wait, that would mean going to the track and by your statement, you most likely don't...i could be totally wrong though...
