Hey guys and gals,

I've been checking this forum out for the past week or so and finally decided to join.
I completed the MSF course two summers ago, but didn't buy a bike until 3 weeks ago so I'm pretty new to riding.

Here's a pic of the F4i - couldn't pass on a great deal.  Too bad I only got a chance to take it out once before winter storage, but it gives me some time to look for all the necessities (helmet, jacket, etc...)

was the bike dropped?
if not what's up with the yellow on the side?
 
I hope you scoped it out thoroughly before buying it if it has been down
 
If it's mechanically sound then it's a great bike just don't get too throttle happy

Welcome!  I'm down here in tx and it's still ridin weather.  I see it's on a stand but make sure to still move it and start it, don't want any warping in the front tire.

There's a little scrape behind the sticker, but everything checks out.

The previous owner highsided at low speed on the track with his race skins, so the oem plastics are in good condition.  The engine cover took some damage, but nothing serious.

The picture is the one the previous owner sent me before I bought it, so the stand belongs to him.  I plan on buying front and rear T rex stands off ebay for maintenance and stuff.

From what I read, tires have advanced a long ways and tire warping is pretty much nonexistent.  BUT just to play it safe, I'll make sure to roll it from time to time.

Thanks for the warm welcome!
