CBR600 F4i/F4/F3/RR Riders

i meant...when the delevopment of a bike are seen "slow down".usually the Mfger will replace the model soon.it de business cycle.why dump $$ into a old system when the new system is building up.

 

It is bcos other countries... the demand for F4i r there... and Mfger dont need extra $$ to develop.... just produce and earn.. gd deal....

 

In business term.. " Pao Tan".

[Rockford]

Bike model choice has all along been a personnal preference aka subjective.there is no right or wrong in the choice.

 

heyy... Why i always buy already then regret leh....

 

and after selling off, then think of it....

 

i think sommetimes.... bcos got too much choice....

 

so tue eat tim sum or roti prata??

You Have A Choice!!

to a certain extend,it quite true also.however MFger would still "move up the chart" by rolling out New F5i(maybe?) base on new chassis/body frame to woo more customer/sale

 

so tue eat tim sum or roti prata??

 

honestly....i also dunno...but i am ok with both.....

I cccccccccccc. My scar not done yet le, the shop too busy to do for me le.

 

[warren84]

rock:

haha..no la not wilson ..ermm forget the name oif mechanic liao..btw rock ideal moved place liao,,they got bring in wat good stuuff.i know they r selling braking floating dise last time, n alot of those light weigh rim for aprilia, alot good stuff..

 

 

ellamcoy:

i'mused to rs250..really missed but it is not as smooth as honda, should try..not slow. can hit 220 and on my 6th gear at 12 rpm..can drag more to red zone..pickup very fast can win my f4i anytime...but $$$ haha..alot gd stuff on my previous bike from the previous owner such as wp rear shock, nicosil big bore blocks from australia, arrow full system, ducati brake pump,miss the power when the valve open...but 250's really sad cause alot pple neber take care n the market value too low..old bike liao, crankshaft,block,piston easily wear off.not relaible but very powerful monster..so see u heng or not to find a gd condition one..my fren rs250 horsepower hit up to 65..imagine that compared to 400cc, which average is 45-50(if u'm not wrong)..but old bike alot 5cent 10cent stuff need to touch up very sian one...why??? ellamacoy buying one to try...keke...

 

maybe used to rpm hitting up fast, so still felt that whether anything i can do to my f4i to improve mid-range...maybe a fast throttle to make my top easier to acheive...(fast throttle very shiok,))but last time, we did ramming in of cold air into the airbox by washing machine pipe..so wondering for honda bike what pple noramlly does..beside high air-flow filter such as knn or bmc,velocity stack???, maybe some pple just share n talk about it.. searh the net they mostly provide velocity stack for 929 but seldom they say for f4i..

i believe its the tour model (banana seat) if they bringing the latest 06 models cos the sports model has stopped production and was taken over by the RR model.

[daydream]

RR has no comfort to speak off.

 

it feel hot with the underseat exhaust in slow traffic.

it handle bar is set low as such wist is always on pressure unless ur chrest is flat on the tank

it "drink" more fuel then F4i but not necessory faster then F4i in pickup/speed

it seat can be refer as a hard pad rather then proper seat.

 

*there u have it....a honest feedback from a actual RR user.

Hahaha, ya lor u might be true in some context

 

Juz did a market search, didnt know the used Super4 still selling at that kinda high price!!! Not worth the value, rather keep the RR, at least i would nt have problem letting go in the future!

Wow, sound like u got load of great stuff on ya previous RS!! Hahaha, u can have a replica mod on ya F4i too! Change to a bigger rear spockets and used a bigger jetting kits! I m sure it can take off like ya RS! Hahaha, juz kidding, the FC n maintainence will also be close to an RS!

[hockie69]

I noe F4i is a bit stronger in pickup, but top speed can fight with RR?

 

if u are believer of "chrest is build for laying flat on the tank".then the top speed of RR is higher lor.

 

or else..once u "Stick ur head up....the wind blust will BLOW u away.

 

RR is build for track....not street fill with speed cam & along road WRX.

 

riding slow on a RR is hell.......
