Hello. I have an 06 version of this bike and I was wondering could you maybe upload a picture of the radiator neck to maybe imagur or something similar? I just bought a new radiator cap since my bike is overheating so i thought that might be the issue, but for some odd reason I can't get the new cap to seat properly. I got into a mild crash which caused this so I'm wondering if the neck to my radiator is possibly damaged which is causing the system to not work properly
unfortunately, this bike is no longer in my garage... first the obvious questions: did you notice any coolant leaking from anywhere? this overheating was not happening before the accident?
@@jeffhumes overheating was not happening before the accident no. And the leak was coming right out the radiator cap. I ended up staying out there for another hour and was able to manhandle the cap on though. But my temp gauge is still reading too high. I'm thinking it may be a bad thermostat since before the cap when it got to 230 my bike would start smoking, but after I added the cap it was still reading 230 but no smoke showed itself
@@Luv-dq5th when you say "when it got to 230 my bike would start smoking", are you saying that it would really start smoking? like blue or white smoke out the tailpipe? what kind of smoking? any literal smoking is not really normal.
@@Luv-dq5th do you think it was more like steam than smoke? either way, it should not be doing either, even at 230 degrees... 230 degrees is hot but not overly so did you take any pictures or video of this occurring?
Hello, excellent video and i appreciate the clear instructions. Im in the process of planning to swap out a knackered engine on my 2003 F4i and the haynes manual states you can't have the bike on paddock stands due to it being linked the to rear suspension. Did you have any issues getting it back in/out because of this?
Hey, I noticed on your vacuum hose that you have the fuel pressure regulator one coming from the 5 way splitter. Mine comes from the 3 way splitter. The one from my 5 way splitter goes to the map sensor. I checked the manual and that is correct. So my question is.. does your bike run okay with it hooked up like that?
78k km is quite a bit on an inline 4 engine. If you don't mind me asking, what is the condition of the bike and what is the price? are you looking to rebuild it or are you looking for something that you can just jump on and have it be reliable? What also counts a lot is how well the bike has been maintained...
Gud day sir, i have a 2005 f4i, i have a problem re the engine. It vibrates too much. My hands are numb whenever i ride. Even at 90kph only. What could be the problem sir. Tia sir.
Need a bit more information: 1. does the bike idle well? Or is it shaking at idle? 2. at what point does the vibration start? is it vibrating at idle? does it only start when you are moving?
I had a fellow rider reved the engine at idle and he said it vibrates. Though i usually notice engine vibration when i ride. Even at 90kph my hands are numb already.
@@danmascarenas4719 There are a few things that can cause vibration at speed: bad fuel, fouled plugs, valves adjusted improperly are some of them... I would probably start with checking the valve clearances and resolving any issues there first
My air box has something that looks like a tube would connect to something, it’s on the front bottom of the air box. I originally thought it connected to that three tube connection off the valve cover

@@jeffhumes it was smoking in the radiator when temps got to 230 before I replaced my cap. No smoke out of the exhaust

This is gold. Throttle body coolant hoses, which one goes where? Potato potAto?;)

it ran fine up until I sold the bike. but you should always go with what the manual states! thanks for watching!
Hey I got a question how did you get that engine out of that bike without separating the frame from the swingarm
Anybody know what banjo bolt that is that connects to the fuel rail from the fuel pump and where I can find it
HOSE, FUEL FEED
17527-MBW-D20
I usually look things up on partzilla, as they have excellent pictures of all of the parts
I found a f4i 2006 with 78k km did she worth buying it or not ?

it is likely that what you are seeing is a drainage tube...
What's the easiest way to change the starter buddy?
I was told my muffler bearings are going out. Can you help me ?
yep
it is not your muffler bearings
it's your blinker fluid
stock the f4i does'nt have the idle cable on top. just a set screw where its screwed in. thats a handy mod tho.
I think it must have been modded when I got it then :) thank you for letting me know, and thank you for watching!!!
@@jeffhumes no problem. It's usually a sign that the bike has been stunted.
Sick to see you in the comments lol, yeah definitely been a stuntbike.. also has the clean air mod.
@@StuntbikeOzy oh shit!! whats up bro!
