F4i good wheelie bikes?

I used to have a 01 zx-6r but sold it, wanted a fuel injected bike so lookin at f4i. Never seen a video of a f4i being stunted. I like doing 2 gear stand ups, is the f4i alright or does it need to be geared in the back.

Welcome

The F4i is a very good stunt bike. Good for both wheelies and stoppies. Stock it'll come up in the first 4 gears with a little bit of work.

Definetley go with the F4i if you're looking for a 600cc stunt bike :D

I dont know who f4i you were riding, but getting it up in first 4 gears?? Maybe with a pizza rear sprocket! I've seen guys pull 3rd gear wheelies, but they where raping there bikes. Just go ahead and jump on the band wagon and buy a 929 or RR. You wont be sorry. While the other guys are fighting to pull tha wheel up, you can just BLAM role on it and smell ya later!:D

Well... Personally, I've done it on a stock f4i. And NO.. it was not easy. But there is a guy down here named Nate that can bring his STOCK f4i up in 6th gear. I know you probably dont believe me for a second. I didnt believe it at all when I heard about it. I thought it was total bullshit. Then we went out and rode and I was riding right next to him when he did it. I was like

Exclamation Wheelie F4i

I ride with a couple friend w/ F4i's (Both Stock) and one of them can pull it up on the highway going 75 ( not sure what gear) and just ride it for a really long time. I am A GSXR fan myself but F4i's aren't to bad.

I can pull my 97' GSXR 600 up in 1-2-3-4 withg stock gearing. I would be willing to bet that having said that an F4i can come up in those gears no problem. Granted its off a clutch bounce, it still will do it.

The F4i is a solid bike. If i was gonna buy a 600 for stunting it would probably either be a GSXR or an F4i.

i've got an 02 and i can't bring it up for the life of me! but ofcourse its just me, i'm too scared to dump it in first and loop it and when i try to get the timing for the power wheelies i just can't get it off the ground!

personally i like bounce up wheelies,but with the right rpm on just about any sportbike,i know clutch bounce ups are definately possible!so i believe most that say they can do that in almost every gear!i geuss it depends on skill level.i'm 1 down and 2 up and my otherwise stock gixxer will bounce up in 4th with no clutch

I wasnt dissing on the f4I, hell my wife owns one! But its so much nicer to have the power of a liter bike and not have to ravage your motor to pull a thrird gear wheelie. Ive been with both and I'll stick my 929. Hey, opinions are like ********, everyone has one!:D

with the f4i's. get a gsxr if you wanna stunt, best 600 to stunt<--- notice i said stunt and not cruise cause there is a BIG difference. But if i were to cruise i prob. get a f4i cause there in a more relaxed position...........just my $0.02
