Re: Known F4i Problems???

i dont mess with my idle but someone told me it wont idle up past a certain point? oh and you got to hack up the plastics to put a cage on, and for me wheelies come up easier but are harder to stick in the BP than suzukis

unplug it and cut it right in the middle, sum oil will spillout out ,a nd that thing flopping around in the middle cu t that out plug it in and u are good to go. you can re wire sum way but i heard that dont work sumtimes. also it doesnt spit oil into the airbox on the bar, only if its liek upside down or sum shyt, and it wont fuld on the bar cuz its fi.

yeah, you have to mod the idle adjustment to make it go high.

as for harder to stick in the balance point? naw, no way man, easiest bike to rock IMO.

shhhh!!!

hahaha

yea i think i used a 900 idle adjuster i dont really know what it is if its a 900 or f4 but i took the screw out of the throttle body and ran the new idle adjuster to that my **** can crank to redline off of idle. as for the tip over you need to disconnect it and ground one of the wires down, who ever is interested pm me and when i get home ill check.
