Is $200 too much for an f4i motor with 30000 miles on it ????? I know my f2 had that many or more and still ran strong but I dont know bout the f4i. I found this one and know 200 is cheap, but is it bout worn out or what???

 

dude $200 is a ******* steal



And the mileage doesn't matter THAT much.. IT's all about how often the oil is changed, and how it was ran..

I got 34k on my f4i and I hit rev limiter DAILY..




I've seen bikes as old as 1989 with over 80k on them..

But I've also heard of people throwing rods in 5k miles..


It's just how you run it, and how good you monitor it (making sure you have oil pressure, making sure its not overheating, and DEFINITELY constantly changing the oil)

for $200 though you aren't gonna find a better deal.. I'd rather have 4 motors with 30k then one with "5k" cause when someone says their motor has 5k on it, who really knows, it could have 20k...

 

also my 2 cents

You could part a blown f4i motor out for $200 no problem...


stator, head, clutch, oil pan / other case covers, tranny, easily over 200 in parts to part one out

 

is that really a question? if it runs il buy it.. add it to my collection of f4i motors

 

not to mention if ya got the sump mod on there...lots of f4i owners looking for a good oil pickup. and you are right, just cause it blew up doesn't mean the other con-rods aren't bad, crank, cams, etc....that **** is expensive and i'm sure there are lots of riders to swear by that!

i bought parts on cycleparts.com er sumthin like that, 1/2 price than what he dealer gives my here...no bones about it, any make or model...definitely F4I's

 

Thanks guys Ill keep that all in mind. I think Ill buy it and put it up if nothing else just for a spare.

 

Go KART!!!

 

i have one with low miles i'd sell for 600

 

I got one I will take 350 for..
...hate to sell it but someone buy it fast cuz I NEED SOME MONEY!!!!!

 

at 200 buy that ****

 

wish i could find a motor for my YZF that cheap......

 

+1... I test rode a couple 636's with around 5,000 miles and they ran like **** compared to the one I ended up buying with 12,000 miles that had been religiously maintained.

Another thing I have noticed is that most stunters don't maintain their bikes at all. They just ride it until the motor blows and then find another motor to put in. I come from a race background where it was totally different.

 

Buy it. Without question.

 

Thanks for the feedback!! I got it coming saturday. Cant wait to be back in the lot. Havent rode sence I sold the f2 6 months ago.. now the guys are killing it
