RE: whats goin on
thanks for the warm welcome guys! hopefully yal wont label me as a 'squid' being that this will be my first street bike and im sure i will have alot of questions ha.
i just need some seat time on some different bikes so i know what to get!
question... whats the main difference in the f4i and the 600rr?is the rr more of a track inspired bike and the f4i is more of a lesiure sport bike ?

RE: whats goin on
Hello and welcome to the forum. As see that you allready bought yourself a leather riding jacket. As long as you wear the jacket while riding you shouldn't have a problem with people calling you a squid. as for the two bikes, You pretty much nailed it. People consider the F4i A watered down version of the RR but it still a very capable bike. It's been proven that the F4i can beat the RR in the 1/4 but after that there's no comparison. Whichever you decide on you should be very content with. Best of luck.

RE: whats goin on
is the f4i a capable bike at the track also? not 1/4mile... b/c that is something i would like to get into, or atleast be able to really open the bike(whatever it may be) at the track and really lean into the turns..
or should i just look for a 600rr? and yes, i am aware of being on a bike like this for a first bike, is a risky move, but i feel i will be able to handle the bike with no problems since im not going to stunt the bike, or try to be "mr badass"...
