Does the 2002 F4i have a mounting place for swingarm spools for a rear stand or do they have to be made?

 

No mounts.

You have two options:

1. LP makes a "nut-sert" that allows you to drill a hole in the swingarm and install a threaded insert for the spools to screw into.
2. Send your swingarm to PitBull and have them install spool bosses on the swingarm (they look just like the ones on the 600rr).

You might be able to find a local shop than can do it, but PitBull does awsome work and I don't think they charge for it.

 

Thanks. Sounds like a project for the winter.

 

An option not requiring spools:

I came across this company, and they sell a stand that can be used as a roller stand or spool stand:

Most companies make stands that don't require spools.

I don't have spools on my F4i. I just don't think I need them.

 

^^^ agree there I bought my stands from Trex racing 99 bux fed-ex delivered front and rear and the rear is universal mount so I dont need the spools. The front stand also has an option for the triple tree insert but it was 36 bux more. I like to be able to lube the chain and inspect tires ands clean etc with the bike up. Well worth the money

 

At least a rear stand should be mandatory for anyone who owns a bike.

 

I just purchased a 2002 honda f4i and ironically bought the T-rex front and rear stands as well. The reason I asked the question was that the website stated they recommended rear spools. Feel better about the purchase now.
