Hey Everyone just picked up a 2002 f4i, looking forward to riding it this season, previously I was riding a 1000rr, but felt like it was too much bike to completely enjoy it on the street, after I test rode the 600 I realized it "fit"
me better where on the 1000 I felt a little too stretched out. Here's to The start of another great season, cheers!

Howdy! You stepped down from a liter? That won't go over well with the "Tim The Toolman Taylor More Powah!" crowd

Gotta put up some pics of the new F4i. And swing by the F4i sub-forums and wave hey to us

Congrat's on the "new" F4i man and welcome to the Forum. It's a good feeling when
you find a bike that fits ....just like you said.

Welcome to CBRF and congrats on the new bike!! You've just learned something that unfortunately many motorcyclists never figure out ... that a bike that "fits" is far more enjoyable than going out and getting the biggest, baddest, most powerful bike that you can afford. Another irony is that you tend to go faster (and more safely) on a bike that you are comfortable with.

Post up some pics of your ride and enjoy the forums.

Thanks for the warm welcome, I'll post pics when I get a chance; seems like every time i look at the bike I have the urge to get on and ride, instead of finding my camera and taking pictures, so it may be a while.
