Track bike question

Well I have a decision to make. My F3 is well, it has problems. I took my 954 to the track this past weekend and it was badass. So if/when I get rid of the F3 I might buy/build an F4i. That or just use my 954. I would like to get the 600 because of the fact Ill learn more on it, shift more, throttle control, etc. plus dont destroy my 954 when I wreck it. I bought some track bodywork for it buy I still owe lots of money on it. I just dont know what to do. So, give me some things to think about.

Re: Track bike question

Sounds to me like you're thinking rationally. No real advice here but just agreeing with you. Look for that F4i and concentrate on improving your track riding skills while keeping your 954 safe and sound. Anyway, a liter bike on the track is overkill for anybody.

Re: Track bike question

A dedicated track bike is the way to go. A F4i or 600RR would be good.
