Is this common for an F4i?
I find this to be quite odd and somewhat annoying. I am not sure what could be the issue, although it seems to me like it might be an air/fuel mixture problem.
When I take off (First gear), the bike bogs down just a bit until it hits about 4K RPM. When I first give it throttle it almost jerks like it's going to go, then quickly bogs down, and then once it gets to 4K it engages fully again and I'm off. Not to huge of a deal really, it just annoys me. Seems like it should have at least some power pulling off like that. My friend who rides an R1 just attributes it to it being a 600, his friend who rides a gixxer 600 attributes it to being an F4i and not an RR(I know, I know) but I am not convinced.
The bike is stock except for 2 components, a Yoshi slip on and a K&N Filter. IS it possible it just gets to much air and needs to be remapped?

K0NPHL1C7,
Do you have an aftermarket slipon?
When changing Slipon or Full exhaust (even worst) the F4i tends to bog down under 3K because of the free exhaust flow, and very low end torque.
My stock bike didnt do it. i change the slipon to a D&D and it did it very bad. I change it to stock and it went away. I change it again to a two brothers, and it came back (but less).
I heard that it could be resolved with a Power Commander.. I have a TFI Fuel module but couldnt fix it anyway.

PCIII will help out but below 5-6K...f4i is very sloppy.
