Well, if anyone thinks they might be interested in upgrading just the spring on their shock to a RaceTech spring, you better call Race Tech soon. I found out that the spring for the F4 99-00 is supposed to fit all the F4i models. However, RT is discontinueing all the F4 shock springs. I asked why since the springs are used up till the 06 model, but she couldn't give me answer. Tucker Rocky no long has any in there warehouse, atleast not the 16kg spring and RT had to confirm they had one on the shelf. Good news for Olins and Elkin I guess.

 

IMO...you should be going with ohlins anyway ;-)

send away to stig at ppsracing.com and he'll fix her up for you.

 

How the HELL can these companies not sell the parts for the bike that was THE SS bike just a few years ago. WTF?

 

The cbr 600 f4 and f4i were the same fork configuration from 99-06. A lot of people have had the same trouble and have upgraded to the 600 rr front suspension or the 954 suspension. The frame neck diameter is the same just need to put the complete unit on with the wheel.

 

I've got some .95 front springs id like to swap for .90 if anyone has some lighter ones they want to change out.

 

I was checking out Hyperpro's web site www.hyperpro.com and came up with part numbers for front and rear for the F4i but they didnt list prices.

 

PS... Traxxion has 'em.

 

For what it's worth, if anyone is still looking for a 16 Kg rear spring for the F4/F4i Eibach still has them in stock. The down side is that you can't contact Eibach directly to purchase as they only sale to distributers. Racetech can source the 16 Kg spring from Eibach the price is $119 before tax and shipping. If you don't feeling like spending that much, there is a list of Eibach dealers on their web site. I contact Off Road Warehouse (an Eibach deal that doesn't normally retail motorcycle parts), they were able to order one through their distributer, price $86.72 after tax and shipping. The catch is that I have to pick it up at the store. The Eibach part number for the 16 Kg spring is 0600-225-0900. Good luck, happy shopping and remember... shinny side up.
