this is funny.....I just got a chance to ride both tonight. f4i idle pulls hard, but even with +10 it feels slugish on the low end.....the 636 pulls hard on idle, and has a little bit better low end power with the same gearing. other than that.....once you ride for a while all bike tend to feel the same

Re: f4i vs 636

i just finished my F4i, i bought a wreked bike, I LOVE this bike, droped it a bunch already, rides perfect, third gear stand ups are great, but i havent riden the 636 so i cant say anything about that. my thought, if you get the F4i you will never be disapointed.

Re: f4i vs 636

i ride a gsxr 600....and to tell you the truth, as much as i like all these bike's. it's all in preference....others may not agree, but I don't really believe that one bike is that much better than another...again it's all preference. just my

Re: f4i vs 636

an f4i will take more of a beating than any other bike... I mean from being tossed and flipped and all that

I tossed mine a bunch working on circles with a 905 cage and never broke anything

Re: f4i vs 636

since Jay Soi is the current owner of my old f4i

I had to pick up a new 636 and i might never have to go back!

I just don't like how fragile my 636 is!

Re: f4i vs 636

I got an F4i and new to stunting, gotta say I luv my F4i and even though there are a couple bikes out there I want badley, I still want to keep my F4i along with them. Have never heard anything bad about an F4i, from how they stand up to the abuse to how nice they feel on one wheel.

Re: f4i vs 636

hows the front end on the 636. i know on the f4i you should swap out a 929 front end if your doing endos but i never heard nothing about the 636 front end.

I don't really think you can mess up by getting either.

Re: f4i vs 636

I have 636 and I love it. Never rode a F4i..I know it's going to be hard to stunt a 05 since the tank is 1/2 plastic so I dunno how you would get that dented but I'm sure you're not going to buy an 05 to stunt anyhow

Re: f4i vs 636

The 636 is good, but like people have said... realy fragile.

If you know how to fab **** up (basic metal fabrication) and you have some tools... then it's a good bike, otherwise you'll be replacing **** left and right which will run into big bucks.

So, if you got the skills, I'd say 636. If not, f4i.
