All black 20k miles yoshimura slip on exhoust undertail rear kit flushmount blinkers dark smoke shield. daily runner,fast and i must sell fast i have too many tickets.
Serious riders only no lookers 2,500 firm qst one takes it, i have pink slip in hand and a clean title.







this is what he wrote me back after me telling him thats not a 02 f4i

Well todd (**note: my name isnt todd its Robert**) that's great but its not stock obvs. I didn't ask anybody to
explain my bike to me and its sitting in my warehouse in hayward I can
assure u its not a scam nor am I worried people may think it is I have
more pics n all but thanks for ur great advice.
Da Problem
am i wrong and that truly is a 02 f4i because to me its looks like a F4
my reasoning because the bannana seat and the front headlight.

clearly an f4, maybe he thought that by writing f4i that his ad would get more hits, or maybe he thought some kid who doesnt knowmuch about motorcycles would buy it based him saying it was an f4i

that picture is an f4, unless he put a new subframe on it and new plastics (yeaaaa ok) that would make no sense at all that **** is an f4 and hes a moron liar


ask for the vin, the 10th digit from the left, or the 8th digit from the right (same digit) if it is a 2, then it is a 2002 model thus making it an f4i, if it is 2000 or above i think it should be a number, if its a 1999 or something it might be a letter im not to sure on that last part, but the 10th digit from the left will be a 2 if it is in fact a 2002

+1 on both posts above.

and i believe the f4 stoped in 02 so that doesnt matter. the fact is like catamayo agreed no one will change a f4i to look like a f4. im further pissed off because this guy is lying and then tries to tell me i dont know what im talkinabout. theother day i saw an add of a 97 cbr f3 650 ! so i replied to the ad and told them about the mistake and the women replied back thanks that she would tell her husband who poste dthe ad but the chnages never got made .

i hate people who try to scam, bull****, con, steal etc ! its not worth it . even if the guy above about the f4/f4i lised it as a f4 for 2500 he would sell it fast ! but why lie !!!!!!!! there is no point and the fact is that some dumbass noob will buy it and tell all his friend he has an f4i and they will laugh @ him and thats not right
