Muscle Memory????

I am contemplating selling my 900 and going to an f4i. I am worried because I went from a 929 to a gsxr6(wht a fkn piece of ****!!) and hated it so I went back to a 900. Im sure many have gone down in bike size, I was wondering what you thought or think about it.

Re: Muscle Memory????

I think you should. It's only a matter of seat time and you'll get comfortable doing everything on the f4i that you were doing on the 9 (and new things will start coming faster)

Re: Muscle Memory????

F4i is a easy bike to ride - street, stunt, beginner or pro.

Re: Muscle Memory????

gsxr is garbage. for lots f4i seems to be the way to go. i have seen people progress very well on them. as for the highway there is no other bike to own than the 900rr, they have cruise control balance point !

Re: Muscle Memory????

Thats what Im talkin about. I love the lots, but I wasnt progressing the way I wanted to and hadnt rode the streets in a long time. We towed everywhere. So I got it titled and hit the streets the last few months. I love it an riding is fun again. Thats why Im afraid to go to something smaller but I want to do both.

Re: Muscle Memory????

you won't listen but i'd say stick with whatever you got, a good rider can rock whatever.

Re: Muscle Memory????

You can rock out any bike!!

GSXR's are crap though cause they are fragile.. break really easy, messed up idle at times,and easy to blow engines on. other than that they are just bikes... I rock out on the gixxer and personally don't feel comfortable on an F4i right off. But give me one with the lazy boy bars and I'd like it too!
STUNT WHAT YOU GOT!!!
