Default new from ontario

I found this site while I was trying to figure out what my next bike will be. I currently ride a 99 katana. I've pretty much got it down to a cbr600f4 or an f4i. What are the differences between these two bikes other than the fuel injection? Are they comparable in power? How about riding position? What are the pros and cons of each? Please help me make up my mind so I know what to do in the spring!

Go with the F4i -- not that there's anything wrong with the F4 -- it's just that fuel injection is just so much smoother than carbs. Power, handling and rider position are all close. Main difference is injection.

P.S. If your Kan-o-tuna is a 600 then you'll notice a huuuuuge increase in power and handling ability with either bike so take it easy.

I agree with what chain said. Go with the F4I. You will be happy with your decision. Welcome to the boards by the way.

Welcome to the forum, yeah go for the f4i, the fuel injection seems to make life easier for maintenance too.
