yes, I'm selling. I've done quite a bit of work fixing things and making it look nice and right now I've got a chance to make a little profit before I drop it and break everything again :)

so now I think I'm looking for a yellow or red '01-'03 F4i, so if any of you towards the left side of the country know of any, let me know. unfortunately both of the ones I posted earlier were both gone by the time I went back to get the info for them.

what else should I should look at that's comparable to an F4i? I'm looking for a comfortable sport bike with good mileage. A newer VFR is nice but too much of a tourer, not enough sport, RR's are awesome but less comfortable than I'd like. I'm going to be commuting ~50 straight, flat miles a day and want to be able to rail on weekends or a few track days. If I weren't going to commute I'd have no problem getting an RR. And the numbers don't add up to have a track bike and a little 250 to commute on.

Id stick with a RR or a r6 or a gsxr, havn't really heard great things about the kawi's. You should chekc out the new triumph 675 triple, tha tthings badass and they sticker for like 8500ish i think

good luck sellin your bike!

one of my friends I ride with has an '05 600rr that I've ridden, I really like it but it's not something I want to sit on for an hour a day commuting with no twisties.

an f4i is perfect for what you want.

or you could get the right performing bike, and get a corbin seat, new rearrsets and the likes and make it more comfy to your standards.

depends on age and bikelol... i was fine on my bike for 600 miles in one day... but my buddy on his RR was a different story haha.

the GSXRs are comfortable but im biased to R6's. My buddy hasd a corbin seat on his 03 gsxr600 and its like sitting on a pillow... its amaizing

I say go for R6, GSXR, or F4i... but what are you looking to spend?

probably want to spend around 5k or less...haven't sold the bike yet because I've pretty much been gone the entire last month, which has made it very difficult for people to come look at it. oops. i'll be back on the ball next week though.
