How could and F4i be "more stable"? It's a SOLID platform. Not clowning you, just a private thought that I shared with the world.

If anything the F4i is "too stable" when you really start to push it.

Shimming the shock 5mm and installing a damper turns it into a different bike.

I am still trying to deside if I want to put my 600rr swingarm on.

You mean raising the rear 5mm?

yes, buy you are doing it at the upper shock mount so as not to alter the geometry of the lower link.

It will make the bike turn in quicker, but you lose some straight line stability.
