I tried to install my cage on my new F4i...it doesn't fit. Not any fault of Freestyle I am sure...maybe I am missing the correct way here. But to me it appears that my slider position is much further forward than normal. Therefore the side support bars that connect at the subframe won't reach.

I have Japanese spec 2003 F4i Valentino Edition....does any one know what's up?? Can some post pics of thier F4i with a freestyle cage installed!?

Thanks!!!

 

If you can tell by these pics it seems my slider location is not the same as other F4i's??!!

 

looks like the wrong mount?

 

it should be on the motor mount behind the cylinders, instead of in front of them..

 

definitally looks likes like its mounted in the wrong place. should be somewhere close to this

 

That is the position that the previous owner had his sliders....there is no other spot to mount them. Other pics I have seen show the slider mounted almost deirectly above the case. But upon removing the fairings there are no other mounts to use?!

 

their there just look where f4 made the picture

 

Thanks guys!! I will go check it out and cut new ositions.....again thanks for the help!

 

just a question but has anyone tryed putting an fi cage on the right mounts and extended sliders like he has in the pictures?

 

dang tht sucks now u gona have holes in ur plastic

 

Ha Thats what stickers are for, to cover them up. LOL :YEAH

 

Ok fellas it's finished thanks for the help! Perfect fit....the holes that I have in the previous pics where already there when I got it...I just stuck the old sliders back in there for now....when I paint it again next week I will get the guy to plastic weld the holes and smooth it over......thanks for all the help!

Doodle...if it did go where the position was of the original sliders on this bike...it seems like the cage would actually protect better and more vitals?!

 

Like this???





I just run these two pegs welded together. So far its a pretty strong design, friend ran this on his gsxr all last year with a ton of hard crashes and no troubles. I might make a loop for it sometime but not unless i can find a good way to attach it to the center stand mounts. A loop that just hangs like the fi does is not a strong point.

 

thats pimp dude..where you buying the derlin to use as sliders?

 

freestyle ingenuity like 15 bucks were i got mine

 

Theres a website that sells bulk material. I lost the address when my comp crashed but i can get it from a friend. We bought 8ft of it for $25 each.

 

is there anyway you can get some pics in better light.,

i like the way that is setup.
are you worried abour ripping out the mount threads? or is this prevented somehow? or have you just been lucky so far?

thanks in advance

 

edit:
btw, i have the same paint on my f4i.
half black half white,
i guess ima change my paint now :FU:

 

Jonny J can you let us know where you found delrin for that price????? That's awesome. I've only been able to find it for about $8.00 a foot.

 

i like that setup
