spinning the f4i

If you mean on the kickstand, then yes it can be done. All my friends do it to their bikes and have yet to see one break.
The way I do it is turn the handlebars to the left locked position, grab the subframe around the battery (just in front of the passenger peg), tilt the weight onto the kickstand, then pull the left handlebar to pull the front wheel off the ground. Then spin, and set down.
I'm pretty weak, so it takes me a couple pulls to get it right (I could do it in one but I don't like leaning the bike THAT far into the kickstand), but it can be done no problem.

Let me get this right, you want to drive in a circle with the kickstand down, and thus spinning the bike around. I think first you have to bypass the kickstand kill switch, because the bike will die while in gear with the kickstand down. Once you have this bypassed, you would put the bike in gear, hold the front brake, release your clutch, give it gas and hold the front brake so you can spin around and also turning the handlebars, to give you the circular motion. Does that help explain this for you? I have never heard or seen this done, but I guess anything is possible.
