F4i or RR? Differences?

RE: F4i or RR? Differences?
This is how is was explained to me by my friend who is a Honda dealer:
Ride the 600RR, now imagine 90% of that and you have the F4i. After riding both I agree with that assessment.
In my case, that meant the F4i was better suited to me as a daily rider because I was just that much more relaxed because the bike was a little more sedate.

The RR is more expensive because it's the "Hyper" version of the F4i. The RR was designed with the track in mind, but makes a good street bike also. The RR has an aggressive riding position, a little more power in both torque and HP, an under tail exhaust (which gets hot in traffic) and some other goodies not found on the F4i.
The F4i is no slouch, still a great, fun, agile, and potent street machine. The F4i has a more comfortable riding position for those longer rides. It has moderately less HP than the RR but it is much easier to launch, this is why you see at times a better 1/4 mile time. If you’re a novice both bikes will make you smile all day.
I ride an F4i and I love it, with the mods I have added it runs like a stock RR. I have to admit though I got my F4i prior to the release of the RR. If I waited I might have gone the RR route myself.
Remember 5 years ago the F4i was Honda's "Champion" bike on the race circuit; Nicky Hayden (now with GP) won numerous titles on this bike.
Comes down to preference and for a lot of people comfort.

FYI- the seat on an RR doesn't get hot.
Anyhow, ride both (if you can) and make a decision based on your opinion. I agree the riding position was more comfortable- +1 F4i. But, I went with the RR personally- i didn't get the bike just for comfort!!!
