Re: Who rides a F4I!
Sorry, I just gotta rant. My homey blew the engine in his f4i and I am putting a new motor in it and I have to say I will NEVER own one of these damn things. I can swap a gixxer engine in a couple hours but I have been dickin with this unit for 4 hours now and still dont have the engine in it. F4is are alot harder to work on compared to other bikes I have worked on. I hate em.
