Hi guys, just got my 2001 CBR600 F4i on Saturday. It is pretty much bone-stock, at least for now. I used to be a longtime member of the car customization scene. Now I will try my hand at customizing bikes.

I don't wanna go too crazy. I went crazy with my car and it cost WAAAAY too much. Cosmetically, I am a huge fan of carbon fiber (not the fake stick on stuff). I think probably a carbon fiber front fender, rear mud guard, and chain guard. Going with a Zero Gravity double bubble windscreen pretty soon as mine is yellowing and has age cracks in it. Mechanically, I am putting in an APE manual CCT and will likely put in a -1/+2 sprocket set with a new chain. I want to put on a carbon fiber muffler too but am torn between the iconic Yoshimura or anyone of the other slip-ons. I would love to put a 600RR under-tail exhaust on it but I think it would cost more than the gratification I would get from it.
