I just picked up my 2001 F4i on saturday and took it for a spin on sunday. Great weather! almost 60 degrees in the middle of december is awsome!.
Great bike, i rode a 2003 Kawi 636 for 2 seasons andso farthe F4i feels much better; It has a better seating position,easier to manuver and lean over, front is more stable not wiggly like the 636 under heavy acceleration. Maybe not as much power but more than enought for me. 103.7HPon a Dynojet with a K&N filter, two bros slip on, PCIII USB and a custom tuned map.

here's a pic:

Thanks for the comments, I think yesterday was my first and last ride on my new bike (well for this season i mean).
I only have it for 2 days and i already planned out all the winter mods:
Remove all aftermarket stickers, especially on the tail.
remove chrome windshield

Install a Puig Race dark smoke windshield
TapeWorks Kit# 1069

Here's my bike now:

Hello and welcome. I noticed you removed your mirrors from your bike, Is that legal in NY?

 

The mirrors are only off temporarily, its illegal to ride with out mirrors in NY.
I was actually comparing the stock mirrors to the indy mirrors that i got. but im probably going to stick with stock, because all i see in the indy mirrors are my shoulders.

 

Hello & Welcome!!

 

pitsvtec<-- I just looked at your photo album and i seen a pic from Lobster fest 7!I was there, but for some reason i cant remamber you from the ride. All i remamber there was one girl on a red zx6r and one on a green kawi 250.

Here's some pics of me, see if you noticed me there:
