I will let mine go (with under a couple hrs use on it) for the original price of $305 shipped (maybe a tad less), (with a full sheet of FTI inc stickers and all hardware included). You'll just have to pick up your own clutch lever (hint- moose EZ-pull $40).

THAT IS IF Bill will not do a return....... maybe?? ??

That will not include the pimp ASV lever (which I did pay extra $$ for).

Anybody else that's interested let me know....

Re: FINALLY... The NEW FTI HB average Joe test...

so whats an extra 100 bucks when it comes to all the **** we break all the time over the past years? I like the idea of not having a master on the bar, I mean I have never broke one but if I did I would rather break a clutch lever then a master.

if your runnin an f4i... get an SI cage....

unless you dump a 50mph highside and the bike turns completely upside down, I guarantee your controls will never hit the ground.

I've had full length levers for years now and only on major dumps do the bars ever come close to touching... and even so, the controls have NEVER touched EVER.

I never cut levers any more and I haven't had a problem w/ my front brake OR HB master in almost 2yrs w/ SI.......

If you ask people that ride w/ me, I dump the EVER LIVIN **** outta my bike..... ALL THE TIME.

I'm not a fast learner... I need to crash ALOT to get the hang of ****.

Seriously.... comming from an un-sponsored shitty riders point of view, this is the truth.

Re: FINALLY... The NEW FTI HB average Joe test...

cost v.s. performance... I'll pay whatever price to have a great setup great working stunt bike because this is my life style...

saving money only to spend more to get the best set up is more costly than buying the wrong product the first time around...

im not saying which one is better than the other but i am saying if your serious about stunting and it is your lifestyle as opposed to hobby there should'nt be a price factor in setting up your bike your safety and happiness and skillz rely on how your "setup"

I will never use anything other than DC with 4 piston its the ish!!

just make sure you have rear axle sliders to protect that caliper back there!!

The reason I love my hohey setup is because I can run any decent master(Im running a gsxr right now) and it is super strong. I dont have to run a high dollar brembo/magura, but still get tons of power. So that knocks the cost of a hohey setup way down
