Nice buy !

Just to clarify, there's absolutly nothing wrong with F4i's, or the F2, F3, F4's. But compared to a bike like the R6/R1, the CBR F4i just doesn't cut it (hence, the RR).

They are great bikes though, and its pretty tolerable of mistakes and are commonly known as great starter bikes.

Seriously, the R6 and the CBR are within a couple ticks of a second between each other in the quarter, and the only time you'll see an R6 shine is on the track.

Street wise, not much will be any different.
