I keep seeing red & silver f4i's too (ever since I got one of course). Put some real miles on it this weekend, went from Nashua, NH to Plymouth, CT and finnaly to Brooklyn, NY. I can't believe Honda stopped making this bike, or that people stopped buying it. I got off it in Brooklyn and was not sore at all, I mean I knew that I had ridden, but compared to the 1000rr i racked up miles on last season, this was a cake walk. Also when in full Sport Touring mode, it felt completely stable, and to accelerate on the highway I didnt have to shift down, just roll into it a bit. Had the bags all extended to full size too. The cortech stuff was all easy to mount (took about 5mins of head scratching then another 5mins of connecting it and it was solid). I think I'm getting somewhere slightly north of 40mpg with all the bags on, moving with the flow of traffic (between 65-85 depending on which state I'm in). All in All this has been an amazing experiance, from driving around town, to bombin down the highway, to pi$$ing off my neighbors at 9:15pm while rolling into the driveway (its a long story, but the short version is, even with a quiet exhaust, and idle-speed, the bike is too noisy for them).

Very nice, man! Glad you're enjoying it.

You know what that means, right?
Time for a much louder can.
