Default Hi new here

Hi,

I am not new to bikes although work mostly on my Supra.

I bought an 01, F4i a few months back with a tad over 1000 miles. (yes, that's correct) Wanting to do the air box mod but can't seem to click on this picture because I am not yet approved member.

Can't click on this picture in this thread.

Hi btw.
Duane

Welcome Duane.

Bikes are not all that different than cars, just a bit more compacted.
Be patient, you'll be approved soon enough. Then lets see the new toy!

My 01, F4i. One owner and hasn't been insured since 07. She laid it down in a parking lot apparently. Minor scratch but looks awesome in person. (just 1000 miles on it) Has more now that I bought it of course.

Mods so far are:

  • It's lowered a little over an inch.
  • Has Pazzo adjustable levers.
  • Michelin Power Pure tires (had originals on it when I bought it and were have worn only. lol Figured I should change them in case.
  • Fender eliminator kit is something I will order this week. Any source that are reliable?
  • Took off CBR sticker off side and removed the reflectors so far.
  • Added a Go Pro to the right side of the bike where that sticker as.
  • Cruise but the clip on style for long trips. I road over 400miles last Sat and my hand needed a break!
Mods to come soon


  • Air box mod. Does it give power? Not entirely sure.
  • K&N worth it?
  • Core brake lines in black for both front and rear
  • Rear sets by woodcraft. (used to work at machine shop and quality seems to be great)
  • RS carbon but will be cutting mid pipe and adding a custom burns 321 SS with nice welds shown. Better look as I think will give different look.
  • RK chain and a moly sprocket
  • Seat cowl (if anyone has one, lmk)
  • Like my Supra, I will be adding some small details to it which I can eventually show later when they come in.
  • Custom CNC stuff I will be working on as well.
My Supra (no stickers on it; this was for a mag shoot only)

Here is Supra at idle.

Car makes 710 on pump gas
920 on race gas
1015 on bottle

Got a few test passes in and got booted for no NHRA license. 9.90@147. My bud has exact same set up and ran a 9.15@162. I don't go there often so didn't feel like doing it. The car now has the wheels painted satin black center and gloss black lip.

Duane

Where is the edit button here!! The Supra board I frequent is different. Is it because I am a newb here that I can not find it??

I purchased the bike 2 months ago for my edit. LOL

Thanks

I know this thread is a couple months old, but I had to say something.

That f4i is damn clean, and so is the supra!
Can't wait to check out the mods you've done/are planning.
