+4 will get u left behind on a big track....so keep that in mind. As far as lower bars...try getting some vortex clip ons. And you should still be okay with your stock rearsets. Most ppl end up grinding them because their body position is wrong to start with. If you're still having issues, just cut about 2" off

If i put vortex clip on do i have to put it under the upper triple clamp? because if i put it at the same place of the stock one its gonna be the same... And for the rear set i know if i have the right position i wont grind it.. but they are easier to grind that on my zx10..

And for the +4 here in quebec we dont have big track.. anyway im not a speed guy .. more a corner guy lol.. anyway its my first track bike.. i would like to get a gsxr750 next year !!

My first track day this season is wednesday. I can't wait! I never scrapped peg though, I did rid the feelers on the bottoms though. And as stated earlier body positioning is key. There are generally a lot of helpful people at the track. Talk to as many of them as you can

Looks good! You need some proper track fairings now.

I'm running an '01 F4i at the track as well:

Gonna try and hit up some tracks in Ontario this summer? Calabogie is great, and Shannonville is good as well. I've been to every track here except for the new Grand Bend track. I wouldn't mind hitting up some of the Quebec tracks this summer.

try raising the back end with washer shims. it will turn in faster and put more weight on your hands . maybe making it feel lower.
u may be able to switch left and right clip on bars and put them on upside down ?
