Default F4i riding position vs more aggressive

How do you guys think the F4i fares at the track? The F4i puts its rider in a more upright body postion. How do you think this effects the F4i at the track? Makes it more difficult to ride at the track?Vs other bikes more aggressive's riding position which has their rider leaning forward a bit more.

Everyone knows the F4i is great to ride around town but what about at the track??

Excellent track bike, very easy to move through the turns. Really the only draw back if you want to call it that, was the position of the foot pegs, I scraped pegs a few times. I just altered my body position more to avoid that, or you can upgrade and put some vortex pegs on.

You realize the F4 WAS honda's 600 race platform in 99 and 00? I'm still in awe that you can own a bike that is so close to what was/is on the track currently. Any 600 was built for the track... it'll be fine. The biggest difference on the track will be the riders, especially at a track day level.

the riding position is not as aggressive as cbr600rr's. which is fine, i think it makes it easyer to ride.
I highly recomend going to see whats shes made of.. like woot said. they are made for the track....

I think aggressive is not the right word, you can compensate by bending your arms a little (as ohriley is doing in above pick) where as I tend to be a little more upright (street habits), its all about technique on the track, IMHO the f4i is a blast on the track!
