I believe the gsxr400rp (ass up/hands down/head up) riding posture is much tougher than the R1. My neck ache and becomes ver stiff after each ride. R1 should be more comfy than G4 I guess.

Erm, I rode raymond's R1 that time, felt its much more comfy.. when i rest my upper body on the tank it fits nicely.. U r probably tall like me... ard 1.78? i feel that the G4 is too long and it stretches my body and the tank is too low for me to rest on.. But for those who are slightly shorter like my previous owner, or Addictive, they should feel more comfy on G4... (no hard feelings...)

Cos they can rest on the tank more easily than us... more aerodynamic... I cant even keep my head behind the windshield completely...

I'm 1.75m, my ex bike gsxr750wp is also more comfy than G4. I face the problem as you, so I have to bend my body close to the fuel tank and lift my head up to see the road in front which cause stiff neck after a long ride.

If i'm not wrong K&N air filter brand new for Katana 750 which supposed to fit for our bike is going for $150 onli or maybe lower. used to be able to get $70 brand new at ah boy, but now no more... I would think $100 is on the high side, unless condition damn good, cos if they never take care, like anyhow wash, it spoils the filter elements, therefore the filter is gone... sand might go into the engine..

ic...haha...thanks...looks like i hafta bargain wif them for a better price

:nono:

[Addictive]

haha

wat to do? being short also got topic to talk abt, be it riding g4 or doggie.. but sian thing is definitely got problem mounting on k5(except g1) and before, mounting are so high for me, without lowering default suspension settings.

ah shrucks.... but anyway k6 bikes mounting are lower than k5 and earlier version, rekindling my interest!!

ya lor, at least for me. 1 of da reason i pick gsxr400 is bcoz of its long tank and have to bend forwards looks more like riding sportbike. Seriously u call me ride CBR or RVF, i might as well get super4. Coz end up my riding posture will be like my body is vertical. Coz da handle to too close and high for me liao. I think rvf should be just nice for addictive. I mean da posture. Even last time i rode kips, i had my handle bar converted to upside down inverted, to make it lower.

 

Gary: haha i wanna lower my fork for gsxr750. Like abit high liao not comfortable for me. But i scare when going through hump, da fork will suspend till hit da stebel horns

 

 

Ferrous : he gave u tat price is 2nd hand or 1st hand? Seems like u really kana carrot leh. Tat time he sold me $30 for a very good condition K&N filter leh. ur $100 is brand new? Btw last time got a guy call ah^king. He went around searching for K&N filter. He can onli find it at Eversuccess, Quoted $120 for a katana 750.

I was thninking of doing the reverse, to get the top triple tree to alighn with the fork and adjust the clip on handle bar higher.

 

I believe the 92 gsxr750 K&N air filter should fit the G4 as well because they have the same design at katana 750.

No money get rvf leh.. I like G4's posture can't resist it!! Backache and wrist pain are inevitable, but one will get used to it. Took me abt 3 to 4 mths before my body can fully adapt to my baby without any problem or achings.

 

Er, Rode on a rvf before, and find honda bike seems to be too upright! Dun like it at all.. Honda riders may want to take out their exhausts and hit me right now! Better zhao 1st!!

ya very normal, even u change to a better EO, sometime when da engine is warm, also hard to kick neutral. Sometime u must rev abit then tap.

 

But tat time after i change my clutch plates, then very easy to kick neutral wan. I think its wear and tear thing ba. I find g4 pattern is like, when da engine is very hot or wad, then da bike behave very unusual.. Like clutch biting point become less, power reduced abit...

 

So i love riding at night. Haha.
