Hi,
I own a 2002 F4i and am thinking about buying a almost brand new engine from a 2001 F4i and putting it in my bike.

My question is: Is there any difference between the 2001 and the 2002 F4i engine? Any upgrades or enhancements made over the 1 year?

Many Thanks!

 

nope. They are exactly the same.

 

I think the 01 made slightly more power,that's about it.

 

none go for it!!!

 

thats not true, even a little bit. haha same motor. go for itttt

 

Says the guy who rides an 03?? your just jealous...J/K LOL

I have a buddy who has an 02 F4i that has a slip on pipe, K&N air filter, and -1 tooth on the front. My bike has a full MIG exhaust system, K&N, and I've done the cold air mod, and stock gearing. When we line em up for fun, he continually jumps me off the line by about 2-3 bike lengths, but once we hit top gear I can close the gap and outrun him in the long run.

 

thats when his gearing starts petering out n yours gets going. Nuttin to do with power really

 

Yeah guess I should have said that, its exactly what I was trying to say though.

 

indeed. gearing has nothing to do with power. even us guys with the 03s know that =)

 

Thanks a lot guys, I appreciate the help!
