I'm all for giving someone the proper advice to stay away from a bike that's been abused or had shotty modifications / work done. But these comments do not fall into that category:

I understand the Power Commander is a piggyback computer. Ive been into cars for a few years now and from my experience piggybacks suck when it comes to cars and hurt driveability. Only when combined with an ecu flash, from what I have read, is how they can be used optimally.

For this bike, PC is a great upgrade. Many have reported positive results and seem to be happy with the $300+ purchase. I'm glad that there's now finally some alternative products in the market. I'll let you know how happy I am once I get my custom map done. I bought my bike with the PC installed.

*does burnout on Jaybird's face*

I'm a firm believer in doing what YOU want, regardless of people's opinions (I had a car with tons of neon / LED lights on it - you figure it out). That's why I say what I do.

And since you ask, no I don't like the bike. I think the headlight is kind of cool because it's different and custom. I dislike extended swing arms unless it's practical - a buddy of mine has a 5" extension on a Hayabusa and I think it looks great. The paint color is cool. All around I have mixed reactions.

Default my two cents

I would pass myself , but I am NOT you, I bought a VERY stock F4i for 4 thousand, And I love it, I agree with the guys saying the more stock the better. You never know who stayed up all night " working " on that bike.
Do what you want and, F EVERYONE else.
Just my two cents, ( which you did ask for I might add )
Shop for motorcycle where it rains all year, so they will not have very many miles on them, I.E oregon, washington, that kind of thing
rubber side down!

Alittle OT, but can the PC control bigger injectors? The reason I ask is..im curious how people boost their f4i's lol (turbos)
