wel here is my 02 cbr600f4i. over the winter i had it completely torn apart and re did numerous things to it. I changed the paint color myself to the all mighy ford dark shadow gray (DSG) it came out a bit darker i think, but it still prefer it over the flat black it used to be. As far as mods go, i installed a sick innovations crash cage on it, RK 520 cnversion with new sprockets of course down 2 up front and up 3 in the back. I also put the speedo healer on for an acurte reading now. Well here are the pictures of her. I am stll missing the front fender due to it breaking pretty bad. Let me know what yall think....

ya those acents really make the bike right now. two options I'd say are to go with stock decals from RR's or F4's... you could pick those up for ~100$ total at a dealer... or go for the Stunt/Track look and throw Vortex and Repsol decals all over the thing =p 

Im partial to the Repsol stuff myself but stupid coversion kits for f4i--> repsol f4i are just terrible looking =(

nice looking bike, Intresting roll cage i havent seen one that doesnt go around the bottom as well, I guess this is more or less upgrades frame sliders and not an all out stunt cage? must be or you wouldnt have botherd with a speedo healer because most stunters take the whole thing off lol

anyway sick bike I like it.

Looks good man.  I was going to say the cage stands out, but I actually kind of like it like that.  Only comment I have is, are you planning on chaning your rear seat cover?  Might look nice matching the front, I hate how mine don't match.

as far as the cage goes it does connect underneath of the bike and i have pushed it over multiple times and it is still looking pretty. as far as decals go im doing some of the stock f4i decals but im getting them done to match the orange. The seat cover pisses me off too. I am having my local upholster wrap it in leather looking orange vinyl. I will have more pics of it when its where i want it to be completely. thanks for all the comments guys!

I like that color.  Did you paint it yourself and if so, how?

Don't mess it up with a bunch of graphics, maybe a honda sticker or two but it's cool the way it is.

I think it looks great, it's like a classy stunt bike which is typically an oxy-moron

edit:  my favorite part is the painted air intake covers in the front - I think that's a real cool detail

yea i painted it myself. I didnt have room to use my airgun so on this project i used spray paint. You can't tell though. If you take time with the prepping and wet sanding it turns out great. And about the other comment of  the ram air grills, i really like it. that small detail brought it together nicely. i have gotten alot of compliments on the bike when its out and im really happy with the way it turned out. thanks guys!

duplicolor primer, duplicolor paint, and clear top coat. And for the gas tank since the regular clear coat isnt gas resistant i used their engine enamel clear coat which is gas and oil resistant.
