I think i have my bike sold, and im thinkin about gettin an F4i...are there any years i should stay away from? I dont want one of the newer ones with the single seat and i've been mostly finding 01-02's....hell that might even be the only years for them i dont know....like i said, anything i should stay away from?

all f4is are great ...

if you find a deal and it has a banana seat who cares get it and rock it ... you can always put new tail section on

NINER

+1 I kind of like the grab bar on the banana seat. Looks like a good place to put your left foot.

addicted2psi

i dont know about the banana seat...i cant stand the way it looks...what all do you have to do to convert it to the earlier seat?

NINER

Subframe tail plastics and seats from non banana bike. Install.

I have the banana seat. Some people like it vs. the split seat, because I heard after a while the split seats back end ****s up and it moves around on you alot.

addicted2psi

i just cant stand the way they look...guess if i come across a good deal i might have to pick one up though...

Suicidl

what

dude dont you know the split seats back end ****s up and it moves around on you alot

Suicidl

never and i have had 5 f4i's. i could tell you a trick though so your tail plastic does not crack in between the seats

NINER

hook it up.

Suicidl

cut 3 pieces of 1/4 inch plywood and make sure they hang over in front of the 2 post that go up to the seat. zip tie all 3 pieces together and slide them up behind the plastic behind the front seat. it has worked for my tail section no cracks at all

I never have either ... i also had no idea what that kid was talking about

MikeM

I do.

When you stand on the seat, if you put your weight onthe rear seat rather than the plastic, the rear seat starts to losen where it pivots. This primarily effects people who have the rear seat on without the tail plastics.

Suicidl

so dont stand on the seat try the wood it works the you dont have to worry about the seat

it has never happened to me

ok i get that ... i dont know my rear seat has been stuck on since i got the bike in august lol maybe i should fix that

MikeM

I have a corbin 1 piece now, its money. I dont have tail plastics or I would try "the wood mod".

I have an idea of what you are talking about, but would u happen to have pics?

NINER

I can get it off if the seat latch isn't f-ed.

already off ... and fixed - had to take plastics off anyways to stitch em up from smashing the tail yesterday
