cool bike and welcome

 

Ah that's what mine used to look like!!

Welcome!

 

Too bad you dont live closer, we have a riding club with chapters in IE and OC. Iits kinda far for you but your welcome to join us for rides and events whenever you like. Our site is in my sig.

 

thanks for the warm welcome!
baby shortee, yeah, it's kinda far, but I might join you guys once in a while.

 

Welcome man! I always did like the red/white scheme. Nice bike. Any mods besides the frame-sliders??

 

OutlaF4, thanks. the red/white scheme is also one of my favorites. nope, besides the frame-sliders, the f4i is completely stock. In the future i'm planning on lowering it (it's a lil to tall) and maybe a slip-on.

 

Haha Im like 5'6 and I cant flat foot my bike when standing straight up.I got used to it, When standing still I just leave one foot on the ground and the other on a peg works out fine. You should ask around in the F4i forum, they say lowering causes negative changes in your cornering. Just do some research before you do.

Oh and I love the red n white too..
Can you guess why??? Haha------------> https://cbrforum.com/forum/members/-951-baby-shortee-34215-albums-scarlett-342/

 

Scarlett looks good, man. thanks for the heads up-I had no idea. i hear ya, i'm 5 5 haha yeah, i also lean to one side (left) when i'm at stops/stop lights. the only thing that gets to me is trying to go on reverse because i can't get enough grip to push back with my toes. I just stopped trying lol now i just roll it backwards (not on the bike...i can't find the words to describe it right now...does that make sense?).

 

Ya it makes sence. I did that all the time at first, I still do it sometimes. But I learned how to push back on my toes, just took some practice. Another thing you can do is to tilt the bike up onto the kickstand and rotate it around, I only do it clockwise so that the kickstand doesnt flip to the up position

Pretty bike. There's a guy with the same bike around here, but he's got chrome rims. I don't see it often, but catches my attention every time.
