Default new F4i owner... hoping to learn to stunt

so i bought my 04 f4i with unknown milage a month and a half ago with unknown milage (best guess is 12k) for $2600 came with braided stainless brake lines, frame sliders, undertail delete w/e thats called, flush mounts and integraded rear blinkers and a yosh pipe.

id say 3 weeks after i got it i highsided her pulling into my father inlaws house at 10 mi/hr.

the finished photo ( i had to run outside and take because i forgot ) also has on my righteous stunt metal clutch lever..... its B.A. ....just saying get one! lol

im very happy with my bike but 2nd gear is being a little P.I.T.A.... and not wanting to engage so i think im going to have to do somthing about that soon ....

i am looking for a cage if anyone has a cheap one for a starving stunter wannabe...

all opinions welcome..

sorry to hear about your misfortune.

don't get too carried away fixing it. it will get dropped many more times while learning to stunt. a cage is a good idea though. check out the "stunters corner" section for some good info....

Here is a good place to learn about/talk about stunting. A lot of the guys here ride F4i's and in the parts for sale section there is always a ton of F4i parts including cages. stuntlife.com

74demon is right on the money.

You just fixed up a bike to look pretty nice judging by that last picture and now you're going to stunt it?

i know it seems kind of pointless to fix up a bike to stunt but the plan is to strip ALL of the plastics off the bike when i get my cage so i can go hog wild and put my farings back on if there ever comes a time when i dont dump my bike twice daily lol

just ordered a new honda clutch cable to seeing as mine was all kdnfjke up. dont route your clutch cable behind your lock cylinder DUH. my bikes problems add character.
