Don't forget to do the mods to help prevent hydrolocking by getting oil in the airbox... When you blow a rod and you have a chunk missing out of your block you will once again be bikeless.. The F4i's break just as much if not more than any other bike, just depends on how hard and how often you crash... If you don't have some custom extended sliders it's going to roll up on your controls.. So make that mod too.

.If your subframe bolts aren't tight you will break your sh*t without crashing. Do that and $20 worth of renforcements will fix that problem. Live and learn.. All I hear is crying about breaking little sh*t and all your solutions is, change your bike brand. KNOCK THAT SH*T OFF!
3 motors in a year?? Tell your boy to get a fu*king oil pick up, re wire your fan so it runs all the time, and if it gets really hot take a brake, stop doing rev limiter crap or running big gearing on the street... There are many different things you can do to fuc up your sh*t. I've seen people go through 2f4i motors i one year while I am still on my origional motor it came with in 2000.. It's all about how you ride your bike, and how good you are about doing basic motorcycle maint.
It just might be you, not the bike brand that is the problem.. But of course none of you will admit that, you'll just blame it on the bike..

Re: finally switch to f4i
thats only a problem if you overfill the oil. i had a f4i and i loved it. but just a got a 636 and after a couple days to get used to my foot positioning on the seat now i'm killing some ss circle combos. but thats just me.
