depends on for what stuff....
i would have to look up some of the stuff...but i know this off the top of my head...
exhaust and midpipe was $50 (ceramic gloss black coat)
rims where $150 (but there are a lot of incidentals like tire removal, remounting, balancing, etc.)
i think the chainguard, rearsets, and heel guards was like $50 or so....
calipers were $40 or 45 i think assembled (they disassembled them for me because i was too lazy [8D])
problem is i had a bunch of stuff pc'd all at once so i don't know individual totals...
if you want more numbers, just let me know!

Looking good fingers...
...but you'll have to challenge my baby when i get her all done for the ROTM sometime this year!! Or maybe I'll have to wait till '09 because I got a long list of mods to get too...and I'll need time. You get '08, I'll get '09, then we'll have a bike-off !!! lol
I took my bearings out!! hahahaha

well i am representin' the f4i's since we haven't had an f4i as ROTM in what...14 months now!!!
i am likely going to put mine up at some point this year...and probably next year when the paintjob is done....soooooo....let's get ready to ruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuumbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbble!!!!
lol....no i love it when people go out of their way to make their bike unique...just keep us updated...you run your own RR thread and i'll run my F4i....however i am jealous of the RR in some respects because there are quite a bit more things out there....like chain tensioners and things like that that are VERY hard to find for an f4i...but i'll find em...haha

Alright everyone...here are few pictures showing things i have done...NOW....i have to preface this....
She's still being worked on so there are a few things that aren't 100% right with her...meaning there's a missing fairing bolt, etc....Also...my garage SUCKS for a couple of reasons....first being it's gets dusty as hell in it...i can't keep her clean if i am not riding her everyday...so although i have tried...she looks filthy in the pics...and she is....when riding season comes around, i'll give her a top to bottom scrub down....so these pics are jus to show the WORK...not the quality of the finished product...also...my garage lighting SUCKS....really bad....because it's low light and i am way too lazy to whip out the tripod....it uses the flash which accentuates problem #1 with my garage....
oh and one more thing...the bolts....that look all nasty...they are all being replaced!
so please please please...don't judge my baby by these pics...bad garage + bad lighting + a lot of dust = my baby looking horrible...
come the spring when she can finally exit the garage, i will take some good pics...
ahh now...after all that...here they are...
