A lot of people don't understand how much of a difference the stuntex oil pick up does for the bike while 12'n slow rolls. The best comparison i can give you on how the bike feels with a stuntex oil pick up is, it feels like a brand new bike on one wheel. Besides that, the motor won't starve of oil on the 12 bar. Contact Mr. Ryan Smith on stuntlife. He'll hook you up.

I just overfill it a bit, half or 1 quart. Run thicker oil so it sticks better and u'll be fine.

IMO, pickup not needed.
Start with about +15 if you want more then add the -1 or -2.
no reinforcement of the subframe needed either.

Yup. No more luggidy lug lug while slow rolls...super smooth, it will split your wig. And it will make you think your bike is un-stallable

You dont have to do it on the f4i.. It is more of a performance enhancement on the f4i. The difference is night and day. You wont blow an f4i up with the stock pickup all that easy.
