yea that was my main dislike with the r6 is it had no torque. after puttin a 520 kit -1/+2 on it though that thing became a rocket. but if you lined up an r6 and f4i, both stock, which one would take the hole shot? i know the r6 will win top end but would the f4i take it off the start?

They are pretty much the same. The R6 feels lighter and wheelies more easily in my opinion.

another thing i was wondering is, how is the f4i with a passenger as opposed to other sport bikes (handling, power, braking, etc)

In my opinion, sportbikes aren''t really meant to have passengers.
