ok i know this has been posted probly a million times.but which bike is better.i use my bike primarly for commuting but i do like to cut loose on the weekends track,stunt etc.now iam not great at either but i just like to have a good time on my bike.i was thinking bout geting a used rr but i was told unless iam geting serious about the track an f4 or f4i would be a better bike and that power wise the f4i is about the same as an rr just a little hevier.ive also heard that a f4 is more comfy than an f4i so any truth in any of this?which bike is more fun to ride?

 

f4i 01-03 are split seat so uncomfortable. 04+ very comfortable
f4i is fuel injected DUH with better suspension then the f4i and some fine tunning in the handling/frame department.

 

True, but isnt it amazing at how many people are converting the 04+ full seats into the 01-03 single seats.........w00t!!!!!...=-)

 

obviously f4i is fuel injection i was refering more to ergos.i know the i wins in the power department my only question was the ergos and whether or not it would hold its own against an rr power wise. i like the look of the split seat but u say their uncomfortable? damn. the bannana seat is comfy got one on my f2izzle and cant complain.

 

Presonally, I really enjoy my f4i and I don't find the seat that uncomfortable. I have never tried the banana style f4i but I also noticed that many people have converted theres into the split seat style so it can't be that big of A difference. One of my next upgrades for my f4i is a corbin seat, for around $250, I'll be making my bike more comfortable to ride (less stress on the wrists and more padding for the rear) but still keep the split seat look.

 

carbs suck.

 

right.u guys got me ready to spend some moneyso the f4i is packin in the power department as well?

LOL, my buddy has an 2000 F4 , while im on an 02F4i, RE power, not sure of exact #'s but its very close i believe, dont think theres a sig difference? at least RWHP , not sure about low end torque etc?

 

the power diff between the F4 n F4i is all in the tuning. Suspension is the same, a diff upper fairing. Not enough to get ones panties in a wad and not enough power difference that a good tune would fix on the F4. The FI does make for a smoother throttle response.
