Welcome to CBRF Mike!

Great looking F4 you've got there! Nice looking wheels too. I have an F4 as well...that's mostly Sunrise Yellow. ;-) F4's are great bikes. W/ routine regular maintenance, they'll last & last.

Come on over to the F4 section & post a pic on one of our pic threads & join in the convos.

Good to have you w/ us.

Welcome to the forum Mike.

Nice lookin' F4, I see you have some mods on her. Did you do them, or did you get it that way? I'm digging those rotors!

The rotors I bought the bike with, as well as most of the carbon fiber pieces. I recently put new mirrors on because the original ones were a shade off the yellow of the rest of the bike, and I'm entirely too picky with this bike! Put on adjustable clutch and brake levers, got a new taillight in transit as we speak to do away with the turns and plate bracket. It has a two brothers slip on pipe that I made a shorty and re-rivited the pipe back together and repacked it, has carbon fiber front tire hugger, heel guards, Both pieces on the sides of the tank, and a couple other odds and ends. Corbin seat, smoked windshield. I just keep finding more and more I want to do with it, so I always have parts coming I am very strict about the maintenance as I do it myself, bike has 28,500 miles on it, runs great! Need to adjust the valves this winter though. Oh and I also did the manual CCT, as I hear they seem to have been an issue. I will post more pictures up either tonight or tomorrow as my cellphone picture seen above doesn't do too much justice

You may very well find that the valves are in spec at that interval. Many of us have found them to be in spec at more than one interval.

Good job w/ doing maintenance on your own. You'll be more 'in-tune' w/ your bike's needs.
