well first off this is my first post and i am glad that i finally got my acct. activated. Im in Arizona and can ride year round so a lot of time will be spent on this bike that i choose. okay here we go... i have been riding since i was 11 and learned on a kawasaki kz1000 with my father on the back, throttle control, shifting so on is second nature to me. Im 19 going on 20 in June and looking to get my first sport bike in early may. there are 2 bikes im spilt between just because im kinda scared of the 954rr but not 1 bit afraid of the f4i. i feel i will whoop the f4i whenever and how ever i want to right from the day i buy it. but the 954rr... whoaaa i will be riding 2 up with Ms. Daisy for a good long while.

what bike should i get?

 

Welcome to the Forum , both nice bikes at decent $$$

Personally I 'd run with the 954, good condition less miles good upgrades .

I do like the F4i's too BTW just that one needs a few things

 

the 954 is a no brainer value-wise. if you're concerned about the power, i'd see if he's still got the original sprockets and put those back on.

 

What part of AZ are you callin home? I live in Goodyear, just west of Phoenix.

The 954 is an awesome find but like regener8ed said, going back to stock sprockets would be a wise decision. get used to that and then decide where to go from there.

Well, good luck on choosing your bike, let us know how it turns out.

Gear up and ride safe!


-Fearless-

 

I am in Mesa but all of my riding buddies are in goodyear and family.. GO MILLENIUM TIGERS!! I have all my gear and goodies. This isnt going to be my first bike... i just have been on a buel that i just sold and ready to rid south mountain and tortilla flats a new one! but most likely i will get the 600.

 

I would get a 600 if I were you, but there's no reason you have to get that particular one.
I wouldn't be cool with all that rash on an '01 for that price and I don't think you'll have too big of a problem finding one in better shape.
The 954 is priced very well, though, and if it were in my town..... it would be in my garage.


Regardless, welcome to the forum.

 

Tigers Shmigers!!!! Agua Fria OWLS!!!! Class of '05!!!! lol, had to do it. Its all good though, my wife graduated from Millenium in '05 as well. hehehe i never bought into the rivalry thing. i had better things to do.
