I like it a lot. the F2's are pretty good bikes overall, shouldnt have TOO much trouble running nitrous.

It wasn't too painful. I have a friend who's an incredible welder. He cut and rewelded the F4i swingarm to fit the F2 frame. I cut down the F4i swingarm shaft, he rewelded it, then I had to drill out the frame in order to fit the wider shaft. Then I had to make a spacer to line up the front sprocket with the rear.

I'm riding the PISS out of mine. when properly tuned, I have NO question it'll keep right up with the newer 600's and1000s in the turns. NO QUESTION. but I do have an ohlins shock on the rear, and sooner or later I'm putting F2 forks with F3 internals on there along with F2 triple trees and maybe rim.
