Default Never really said hello...

Hi.
I bought an '02F4i last august. I spent two years on a CB250 Nighthawk before that. Big jump!

I mostly just patched it up a little and rode around town. This year I am trying to race it at Woodburn Dragstrip. I run 12.0 mostly. I'm trying to get everything together to run Speed Week at Bonneville in August. I'm in the market for a steering damper now. I don't see anything about LSR on the forum. Anyone else been?

My dad has a '79 CB750 so we have three Hondas lined up in the front of the garage. The Ducati has to park on the other side!

Greetings everyone!

Very nice!
It's good that you're keeping that Duc at a distance. If a honda feels threatened it will beat that pretty boy down.... LOL...

Thanks everyone.
The F4i beats the pants of the ducati every single day. Once we went to go for a ride and the duc wouldn't start so he had to take the old Honda instead. Every time we go to the dragstrip i beat him by, at minimum, one full second.

Noice bike!

Welcome aboard to our little corner of the net!
Lots & lots of guys inhere that have F4is so dont be shy about asking questions,just visit the F4i forum & we'll help U out
Running 12.0s with the f4i? With abit more practice you should be able to get in around 11.5 or so consistently.
My best e.t. was 11.40 @122.1mph 1.90 60'ft.......took alot of passes to get there though!
Have fun & enjoy the site!
