Well I sold the civic and got this, my new baby. Its an 01 honda cbr f4i 600. I just ordered a new slip on. but is completely stock. clean title. It used to have white stickers all over it. you can see the dark orange is where the stickers used to be. the paint has faded that much. but i think it looks way better with the white stickers off.

Im scared to wheelie with it. its got a power ban from hell. feels pretty doggy tell you get the rpms up there. I just got a yoshimura pipe for it. I just want something that sounds decent. it just way to quit with the stock pipe.

I guess ill just have to get used to it more. before i start stunting?

what gear do u normally start the wheelie in second? do u clutch it up?

Welcome to the world of 600cc fuel injection.......The power doesnt come on till 7-8krpms on that bike. I suggest a power commander to go along with the pipe you just bought, it will smooth it out alot. I had an 01 F4i as well, learned alot about it


As far as wheelie'ing in 2nd, i've clutched it up anywhere from 35mph to 70mph. The lower the rpm you bring it up the less 'twitchy' its going to be trying to find the balance point by using the throttle. Never attempt a one-wheel w/out having your food on the rear brake. The bike will go up in 3rd, its just pretty hard (have to dump the shit out of it) I did it several times around 75mph in third, takes alot of yanking back on the handlebars as well....
