stock forks fresh rebuild with racetech springs, I love mine, super strong compared to stock and I can still roll stoppies fine, I dont think the 929 front is a necessity only pimp factor...

hmmm I didnt know that the 600rr forks were that good... i got the 954 forks in my garage didnt even mount them yet cause i need a front rim for em..... quick question should i stay with the 954 or sell that **** and get myself a nice set of 600rr forks?

FAIL on the R1 frontend but yes true it is all personal preference

929/954 front wheels are super hard to come by and very expensive not to mention super weak and bend easy...... plus even minus the front wheel you could still probably sell the 954 forks, tripples, and break setup and make enough to any frontend you want

Bill from Full Throttle can machine your F4i front wheel to accommodate the 929 setup And it only costs $65 so it'd be cheaper than a 929/54 rim.

why do you keep saying fail on the R1 front end Ive heard nothing but good things about that setup Have you rode an F4i with a R1 f/e that you keep saying fail

Ethiopian

never on a f4i but ive rode the newer r1's with the 6piston brakes. i like. i love my 954 frontend though. when i destroy it im geeting a gsxr front or r1/r6. the rr forks are too short for me. i like to run clip-ons on top and refuse to buy a $250dollar hohey clamp.

yes i have rode a F4i with R1 frontend, i think its a FAIL because i would never put a yamaha frontend on any of my Hondas plus yamaha breaks are junk 6piston or not.......

Ive heard nothing but good things about the R1 front ends. And people roll some long *** stoppies on them I know youre a honda man from all your posts on here lol - but what about them exactly is junk

edit: i see you said the brakes - I didnt read everything lol.

How you saying their junk when people roll stupid long stoppies on em now if you said 03/04 kawi forks are junk i'd agree.

OnEWhEeLNEAL

Stock. I had a gsxr front end on but got rid of it.

yep you need to order the hohey 600rr upper tripple, and i would try to find a complete 600rr frontend 2005-2009 nothing really changed but color n fender, there are a few minor changes to lower fork legs, calipers,and rotors. you should be able to find a complete frontend forks, lower tripple with bearings and races, complete breaks, wheel, rotors, and axle.......its really a simple swap only 2 things you will need to do is slightly grind stop tabs down on RR lower tripple because the f4i frame is wider then the RR and on f4i frame up by the neck in the casting there is a piece that sticks out and has 2 holes in it, this is where your ignition locks this needs to be ground down a bit to clear the hohey RR upper tripple, with the 600RR frontend swap you cant lock the ignition anyway, and doing this is way easier then grinding on the hohey but i have seen that done as well if you dont want to grind on your frame and for this small amount of grinding i would suggest using a 4"- 4 1/2" grinder with a tigerpaw or fine flapdisc type grinding wheel to prevent buildup of the soft aluminum alloy on the wheel


i rode yamahas before hondas and i know yamaha breaks suck, they eat pads and fade all day no matter what kinda fluid you run now im talking 03 n older

i thought about running a 07 gsxr750 frontend on my f4i but it was FREE so pardon my moment of stupidity.........

OnEWhEeLNEAL

word - i think the newer setups are better but whatever - like mentioned above its all personal preference anyways.
