Currently looking for a 2001-2002 F4i. Need to sell the E30 to fund it. I really miss the freedom of two wheels.

vance&hines exhaust, overbored, cammed, jets, crappy pod filters.

Tis was a hand me down from my dad. was sitting at his friends house for 7 years, and I recently pulled it apart, rebuilt the carbs, cleaned everything out, new chain, sprockets, new pirelli demon/diablo combo (only thing for 16" wheels lol), painted the wheels two-finish matte/gloss anthracite, and a nice polishing to its pearl white exterior.

Although my bike is a fat pig and weights over 400 lbs, my 600 Keeps up with my buddies monster 696. And laughs with two more cylinders.

to be honest...i like riding and driving equally.

Why did you think it would?

A modern 600cc sportbike is only down a few HP on a 318. But with 400lbs + rider vs 2400 + driver.

Yeah, but it's REALLY bad. a Motorcycle plowed into my ETA in feb and the whole front half of his motorcycle came off. Forks, gas tank, and throttle body.

^You need to get those tires properly scrubbed in. ;)

My first sportbike, 1 week after I got it, 1st time on a twisty road... I'm not pushing it too hard yet.

I did get it leaned over farther than the PO though, even though he talked like he is pro. There's a 190 on the back and I don't think I'll ever get to the edge, not like I really should on the street any way :P

Congrats! I always liked the body styling on these 636's.....

Anyone change their own tires? I fucking tired of paying the shop to do it.
