Default Will they bring it back?

I want my next bike to be an F4i, but by the time I get around to getting one they may be all passed away by then.

I went to the dealer and they only have the 600RR. It would be nice to have a streetbike that can perform on the track and NOT a trackbike that can perform on the street.

Maybe I should be asking Honda this, but I know of no way to contact them.

there is an f4i on here that has over 100K miles. They wont all be dead. If you want something thats not really a trackbike, why not look at 650 v-twins and the sv's and 650R from kawi.

I don't think the RR's are uncomfortable on the street. As I have both, I think the RR is just as docile on the street as the F4i. The riding position is SLIGHTLY more aggressive, but just slightly. There really isn't much of a difference.

No they wont bring it back

The f4i led up to the RR, Honda just kept it around w/o much in change for several years after the RR was released.

but it would be nice if they did, as long as it doesnt have that fugly nanar seat lol

Well when the RR came out the F4i got the nana seat. I guess they figured the RR was the race/sportbike and the F4i would be more a sporty commuter and light tourer.

Some ppl like the nana seat and some dont, some say its more comfy, but I had both and couldnt tell the diff lol.
