F4i or RR

Hey Guys I Was Just Trying To Get A Little Advice.. Whitch I Know Im Gonna Get A Lot Of Honda Haters Givin Me ****.. But I Just Want Strait Up Facts From Honda Riders.. Now I Know.. The F4i Has A Crapy Front End.( Which I Wouldent Buy A Dirtbike And Expect It To Be Able To Pull A Top 5 With Out Being Rebuilt The Way I Need It ) And I Know The RR Has A Week Subframe. I Know The RR Has A Higher BP.. (Which Seems Good Right?) And The F4i Bogs Down Low.. But Has A Throtle Built For Wheelies. Now Is The Frame Strong On The RR Like The F4i. Im No Squid I Can Pull Highchair Circles All Day And Roll About 35 40 Feet Endos On A Fiddy But I Know Im Gonna Drop A Big Bike Alot. Well Not As Much As The Other Guy But I Know Its Gonna Go Down.. Now If Everyonne Wants To Put Something Down To Help Me Out It Would Be Cool.. Not Sure Which Honda Is Best For Me. I Got A Good Oportunity To Get Both Right Now And Cant Figure Out Which One I Wanna Rock. I Want To Get The RR But Not Sure If Its Strong Enuff Or What Ever To Put Up With Me. And I Know F4i Parts Are A Dime A Dozzen On Ebay. So Im Leanin Towards It For Been Cheap To Fix. Help A Brother In The Market For A Big Bike. Any Thing Will Be Appriciated. And I Know Where Im Getting My Bikes So I Dont Need Any One To Sell Me One. Thanks Timmy

Re: F4i or RR

f4i crappy front end stock but still able to roll long endo's, can rebuild w/springs and oil to make it better. my buddy has a rr subframe isn't that weak but frame is hollow in some spots where cage mounts and has bent in. mine don't bog down but w/stock gears you have to hit throttle to snap up to bp. and learning(i know your not) f4i was easyier to get to bp rr harder, and between me and my buddy the f4i was easyier to keep in bp than the rr but thats just my 2cent. oh my buddy has an 03 rr so i don't know what has changed on the newer ones. good luck

Re: F4i or RR

i couldn't be happier with my f4i and i've stunted both... the rr has lots of low end grunt but i've seen ALOT of bent motormounts from cages tearin em up... they're also really prone to flippin upside down w/ MOST cages becaus the front cage mount is so low.... the rr was built strickly for the track and there's alot of haters on here that say the f4i is out dated but %$#@ em! they are stout as **** and you can find parts for em ALL day... i mean hell they built it for 6 years and the ONLY thing they changed was the tail when the rr came out.... great bike to stunt... super easy to work on, parts are hells cheap compared to rr's and personally i think they can handle abuse more!

Re: F4i or RR

Hey Thanks Guys.. But I Guess There Isent Realy A Clear Path To Choose.. I Knew As Long As I Went Red Id Be All Good ! And The Bikes Im Lookin At Arnt In Ohio. Sorry Son Of God. Hopefully I Can Get This RR. If Not Im Goin For The F4i. F4i Just Seems Like A Smarter Decision Anyway. While Im On It Whats The Best Hand Brake Set Up. I Dont Need Supper Crunch Power Dual Quad Intake Calipers Or Nothin.. Hows That Fullthrottle Rig? I Dont Like The Flimsy Lookin Fluid Resivior On It.. Can You Just Use A Hydrolic Clutch Master cylinder And Run It To The Banjo Adapter Thing?

I would hold off on the handbrake until you have the the foot brake locked down and you for sure need it . I may be wrong, but after reading your post above it doesn't sound like you have any big bike stunting experience? If you don't, I think that once you get the RR or the F4i you will find that while fiddys and big bikes employ the same basic physics during wheelies, they are in two different worlds when it comes to actually going out and stunting.
