My first bike, 02 f4i with 8976mi
Well here she is finally guys, the only mod i will be doing will be the pimpbike stock undertail with clear alternative taillight with intergrated turn signals, then i will make a license plate light. Bike needs a rear seat and mirrors as well so i have to find a nice used one cheap then buy hardware as well.
Anyone know if the tail light will bolt to that undertail or do i need something else? Bike currently as a hotbodies (or something) undertail but the brake lights dont work, the turn signals are really dim and i personally dont like it.
Small shoot in my driveway.

They're an awesome first bike. I hadn't ridden for almost 15 years and got an 01 f4i last year and put down 10,000 miles on it since then. I couldn't imagine a much better bike to start on and keep.
I did just buy a 954RR 1 hour ago though : ) Anyone want to buy an 01 f4i $4400?
Nice looking color btw.

I was practicing in my driveway i was so excited haha, got starting up right on the nail. Seems easy so far but we'll see how it goes.
It's lowered 1in in the back, i can flatfoot easily so idk if i should get the OEM link and raise her back up.
Now can anyone tell me why my brake lights don't work and why the parking lights are very very dim haha?

First off let me say wow my heart is beating a million beats per second.
Wow well i impressed myself lol.
I went to an motorcycle shop and bought a helmet (yes i don't have any gear and trust me this isn't the last thing i buy), and got an HJC helmet for 120$ to match the bike so its pretty close in color.
I drove out of my driveway (slanted as well), made a right turn (nailed that on the head) and made another right turn into the parking lot. I turned the handle bars for these cuz i was going slow. Got to the lot and made some circles, 8 figures, emergency stops, take offs, acceleration, shifted to second.
Now for the problem (sorry fellas i didn't fall haha), i gave it a bit of gas then thought my hand wasn't throttling anymore and well it wasn't. So i clutched all the way in before hitting the shed, and then stopped and turn the bike off. I noticed that those bar ends (the throttle side) was on so tight that it would cause the throttle to stick a bit, so i loosened it and problem solved.
Exited the parking lot making a left turn, crossing one lane then turned into my driveway with no problems. Granted this was all at slow speeds mostly.
Sorry for the whole story i'm just a bit excited, this was fun as hell i will be doing it again tomorrow.
