If anyone has i would like to know what kind and how you like it. I just orderd so hyperpro rising rate springs for my forks and rear shock. Going to to factory suspension execpt springs, anyway just curious if there is anyone else who has a f4i as a track bike and what mods you did.

i have seen a few people that have transfered the rear suspension to the 1000RR suspension. but always wondered if Ohlins made a suspension kit for our bikes?

Its a question of how much you can spend really. Its also a balancing act of how much suspension do you need (without going overboard). For example, you can get $10k Ohlins forks but it would be a waste of money if you couldn't utilize the full potential of those forks.

You're likely going the most economical route doing the stock suspension with aftermarket components. But I would do both springs and vales rather than just springs. I've heard mxed things about HyperPro.

For my forks, I did GP Suspension springs and valves. I went with a Penske rear (pricey but well worth it).
