sell GIXXER 4 F4I????

i know that seems like a ****** retard question, every one knows gixxers r bunk and f4is are kingshit.... but i allreaddy have dumped a good amount of money into gixxer and am about halfway done,, just got enough extra money around to get a used steal subframe, 905 12bar, and hand brake(not hohey) kid said it just runs on the same callipar.. but i just am worryied that i am going to drop more money in it just to have it blow up cuz im still learning bp... list of mods, two bros pipe,(not hooked up cuz still need power commander, i got FI cage, powers subcage, vortex +5 renthal -1, RK chain, have dented tank and modded the front fairings..

so i am thinkin about just selling it as a stunt bike or striping down most of the parts and selling them sepparate but who wants a bike thats looks stunted with no stunt parts.. i just know that the f4i has a bullet proff motor..

Re: sell GIXXER 4 F4I????

people ripp on gixxer all the time. not saying which is better, but it seems that gixxer's atract more squids that others. but having a gixxer will hold you back in the long run. a 636 or f4i seems to do the trick

yeah i have noticed that, only reason i got the gixxer was cuz it was the cheepest bike to insure that i looked at anyway, i asked insureince co about f4i and that wasnt too much more to insure, and i dont think i checked 636 i really wanted a 600rr or r6 just cuz i didnt know **** and thought they looked cool... but if ur tellin me that bikes gonna hold me back it makes me want to switch up, but in alll reallity its the RIDER not the bike

Re: sell GIXXER 4 F4I????

your motor isn't going to blow up bro. Keep the jiggy, everyone talks to much **** about them, its a bike just like the other and im not saying its better then a f4i but it does have more power which is a good thing.

I was thinkin it looked like 2 airdams with a headlight in the middle.

Either way you can stunt anything. I dont think the type of bike is going to hold you back. Skill does that.

Take look at the starboys. They kill their Uki's

Re: sell GIXXER 4 F4I????

I started on an 06 gsxr 600 and it held me back because I kept breaking the subframe gorilla scraping the bar while learning rear brake. I broke the sub 4 times on each side and each time was out for weeks waiting for parts Sold it to buy an F4i and was still trying to get the brake on smash and was still slamming the bar and I was good - no broken subframes so I was able to ride day after day and progress. Besides the subframe I think its a good bike but me personally I stepped my game up a little once i got onto the F4i.

Re: sell GIXXER 4 F4I????

As far as big bikes, I started on that bike too.
And bro, if I didn't break my frame,( not my subby, my actual frame) I'd probably still be rockin it. I gorilla scraped mine all the time.... I never had any motor worries.... U need a man cam chain tensioner and a braced subby though...

But before I learned to pull in the clutch, and hang on to the bars and just merk scrape it, when things got sketchy and I panicked, I would just step off the back and watch it pancake! LOL
But I tell ya what... three times and it cracked my frame where the FI slider bent backwards.

My advice to you is go outside to your bike, get out some tools, and take off that effin FI cage and sell that thing or you will be exactly where I'm at once you start slowing your wheelies down. AND pull your motor and brace up your frame too, if you wanna be extra safe.
Everyone says that the gix's are twitchy... I liked it like that
As soon as I busted my frame I sold my motard and bought an F4i so I would never be without at least one big stuntbike.

So I figured (sort of like you) fix the gix and practice on the Honda...... right? Looks good on paper man! & the only thing I can say is, for me, it's like going from writing your name with a sharp pencil to trying to write it with a marshmallow. <that's the difference... they'll both take work to make ideal.

F4i's are forgiving and they take a crash well. that's it. they are dull and not very responsive in the throttle dept., and the front ends are junk. Money this or money that. it's all where do you wanna spend it.... do what you wanna do, but If I were you I'd just take my time and brace EVERYTHING on that K6 if you are gonna keep it.
