Cool. The installation was a breeze but I spent about 4 hours taking off some of the decals that I didnt like. Does it usually take that long? Well heres some pictures!! All feedbacks welcomed!!

Looks good. i am not a fan of the banana seat. plus i dont like riding with people on the back anyway. so i always have a cowl on mine. no seat cant ride people LOL.

are you going to put any silver on it to match up with the side fairings?

Thanks. Hahah. Thats pretty funny.

Nope. I like the way it is right now although I'd like a dark windshield in the near future. Oh btw does your seat cowl ever rattle or scratch the paint when you're going over 100 mph? I remember someone complaining about something like that.

yea i like the way it looks too.

i have a 2001 F4i now. but i had a FZR 600 for my first bike and never had any issue with the cowl. i just bought this bike off a friend of mine who is looking to upgrade to a 1000 RR. and he said he didnt notice any issues with the cowl. but it might be different with the one for the banana seat.

Thanks. Yea I think the split seats are different from the bananas. Thanks for the info tho.

How does the FZR 600 compare to the f4i? I always thought f4i's were a little bit sportier but I've heard people compare the two.

actually i loved the FZR. it rode great. i actually out handled alot of people on that bike. it was jet kitted, for the extra umph. so it was a pretty fast bike. but as a compairison to the F4i. i would have to say, handeling wise, yea they are very similar. very agile. for both bikes, you can pretty much just wip them around and they will do what you want and stay on the road with ease. speed wise, the F4i will blow it out of the water! i think max on the FZR was around 150.

Thanks thanks. Howd you get the cowl for 160? Those graphics aren't really "my style" but they look badass.

My fine female of 3+ years doesn't like motorcycles but then again, if she suddenly did... i can just take the cowl off.
