Hey fellow riders,
Alot of clean and awesome bikes out there, I bought this F4i last October from a dealership in Minnesota. Previous owner laid it down on both sides, fairings had some good scratches on them.
I always wanted to do a project bike and have something that will turn some heads, so me and a friend decided to change the fairings and eventually make everything really nice. Plus, I haven't seen any silver/white repsol F4i's, even with google search so this might make her stand out a little more.
Bike is still in progress, started on Feb 8th.

Fairings were $350 shipped via DHGate, it's not OEM but pretty good for the price. A few parts are a tad stiff and require some finesse to put it on there carefully, but overall not too hard.
I'll probably order the rear tail delete within the next couple of weeks, just have to check the finances to clear first![Smile](https://cbrforum.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif)
Also the bike's going to be up for another couple of weeks while we do another white coat/clear coat on the tank so I have some time to spare before all is said and done XD

Front stand is good and solid, not going anywhere, done this before many of times on many different bikes not 1 problem. And then there is that one factor, u have to be at lease 2% smarter then what ur working with. And then again, u have that one idiot who just doesnt pay attention and knocks it over. lol
