    Got 2k in my pocket.. what now? Or should I wait..

    The first two will not work unless I do some serious modding that probably hasn't been done before so.. Those are definitely a no go.. There is a Corbin options for the CBR600F4 but its $500 big ones. The peg idea is an interesting one, I didn't even think of that.

    I feel like molding the foam through cutting and fine sanding would be the hardest part to get it right. And finding the materials doesn't seem like they are the easiest to get... Vinyl: http://www.outdoorfabricscanada.com/ATV-Motorcycle-Snowmobile-Vinyl-Fabric_c_62.html Foam...

    Got 2k in my pocket.. what now? Or should I wait..

    It's absolutely the seat that's been lowered and nothing else. I can see from the 'Tiny' pic that it scoops down a bit over the stock on which is straighter from the butt...

    Got 2k in my pocket.. what now? Or should I wait..

    From taking a closer look last night(Couldn't take a pic it got to dark) I think it was just the seat that was shaved down about 2-3 inches and thats it. I'm looking at pics of other stock 99 CBR600F4's and from what I see my CBR is sitting the same way. All I might need to get is a stock seat...

    The Reasonably Priced Used Motorcycles for Sale Thread

    I believe this is the one brought up in my thread before.. Where it was parked in Markham originally then moved to Kirkland lake.. The whole thing kinda seems sketch especially given he didn't mention the damage in the ad at all and only brought it up after. Edit: Those exhaust pipes don't look...

    I did adjust the idling.. even at 1200rpm it felt to low, especially when turning it on cold... I found the adjuster screw easily and adjusted it to be a little higher more around 1300rpm which is sounding a lot better. I believe from what I can see the stock dogbone is still on the bike, so I...

    Oh ya it's been wonderful. I'm still getting used to the power I need to make a few adjustments.. mainly I need to raise it back to stock. It's been lowered, I'm 6' and I'm flat footing it with my knees pretty bent... That and I have to adjust the idle on it. It's idling a little low... only...

    Got 2k in my pocket.. what now? Or should I wait..

    So anyone know how to raise bikes back to stock height? Is it something relatively safe to do on my own? Should I start a new thread on it?
