Yep, myself & others on this board have done the conversion...
https://cbrforum.com/forum/cbr-600f4-18/split-seat-f4-41191/

I've got a tutorial in my photo album...
https://cbrforum.com/forum/members/gotcbr-35417-albums-2000-f4-f4i-split-seat-conversion-523/

The split-seat subframe from an 01-03 F4i bolts right up to the F4 frame. You'll need the subframe, battery-tray, rear cowl, seats, tail-light, misc hardware.

There's several posts/threads on this forum on how to do it. Just take your time & do your research...you'll find quite a bit on it these days.

Good luck.

your best bet would be to sell the F4 and buy an F4i

WTF is wrong with your "W" key?

Agreed

Very easy swap, simple bolton as long as you get all the required parts and can be done for around $300 to $700 depending on how good you are at shopping for the parts.

And yea wtf is wrong with your w key lol

i don't believe the f4 was available in the year 200, but assuming you indeed have an f4, are you referring strictly to body modifications or engine as well?

F4 started in 99... you can swap the subframe and seats over but it's still going to be carbed and have the dorky headlight... 04+ I can understand swapping but split seat to F4? nah, better to just sell and get an actual F4i IMO

The F4 was 99 - 2000, F4i 2001 - 2006. And some of us like that dorky headlight tyvm mister one eye going down the road

Even tho th F4 is carb'd, dont let that fool you, it will keep up with any of its EFI brotheren just fine w/o look like it has a headlight out

simple swap, doesnt really cost more than getting a pipe n looks 100x better after done.

Some ppl just dont have no vision n follow the crowds
