dam you were going to drive 900 mile round trip to pickup a crunchy f4i
you can find a way better f4i thats probably 30 minutes from you for the same price

Offer $800 for the bike with bent forks , so you can use the other $1200 to get a good set of forks.. If you feal like it might be a not so good deal pass on it.. this is the time of year to buy.. A wrecked 01 f4i for $2k is way to much in my opinon. let someone else buy it..

Re: Just bought a F4I...Good deal???
The way I look at it is if you have a good reliable set up stuntbike for under 3Gs then you did good. I paid around 2G's for a salvage titled wrecked F4i with bent forks on it from a powersports salvage yard
There are several ways to get it done if you don't get it already built for stunting, OR want to make sure it has decent stunting parts on it. (NO STUNTAID CRAP!)
for example, I bought a new F4i front end, rotors, calipers, wheel, newer tire on it, ect. for my bike @ $150. Then I sold my wheel off the bent forks for $180. Sold the speedo for a little over $100. and cuz I was patient I bid on the right stuff, and got vortex clip ons and a vortx gas cap off of ebay for around $120. for both..
I know I know, typical Jstunt post two paragraphs long, but I just figure if you are under 3G's (factoring in driving cost to pick it up and make it home) and you have a decent reliable stuntbike, then you did good IMO.
