*For entertainment purposes. Don't do what I do.* I started this project with the idea of doing a valve clearance check. I purchased this in Summer of 2021 with 46,000 miles on it.
Dude thank you so much! My ex coworker knocked my bike over in our work parking lot and ruined it. Without this video, I never would've gotten my 2002 Honda CBR apart to find the issue. I really can't thank you enough! Keep doing watcha doing because even if you don't know what you're doing it's still helping people like me sooooooo much!❤❤
@@Moturd Do you think you will be doing a video of the foot control unit removal and replacement? I'm getting the whole control lever on both sides powder coated and want to make sure It's possible for me to take it off and replace it without completely destroying my bike, or doing something dangerous.
Just removed the throttle body on my 954. Remove the screws like he does, then there is a rubber seal that you need to CAREFULLY pry open with a crowbar (that what i used).
Yoyoyo...... you put in a manual cam chain tensioner in that yet? They are known to fail on Honda bikes, many others for that matter. And I hear it's a you know what to change it out unlike it's brother the CBR600rr.
Yes, I did change to a manual chain tensioner. Maybe I'll do a video on it because it's really not hard if you take off the air box and that takes an extra 15 minutes.
Hey thanks for watching! So in all the time I've had the bike, I've never gotten a definitive answer. It's for sure an F4i but the plastics say F Sport. I've never seen a bike called the F Sport so I'm not sure if these were knockoffs or perhaps it was called the F sport in other markets. I'm honestly not sure.
These are not the proper decal but are the same Plastics. The proper f4i Has CBR600 F4i on the frame and rear seat plastics. My profile is my bike with the F4i decals. People also Like the REPSOL plastic for this model.
good find, I had the exact same bike. that thing will run dam near forever. only issue is that they are notorious for 2nd gear pop out and to split the crankcase the head has to come off to gain access to a bolt. vacuum ports going to the map sensors tend to clog causing the bike to run really rich. drilling them out with a 1/16 drill bit took care of that. i sold mine a year ago and now I have an 08 CBR1000RR th-cam.com/video/gnA4jRRCErc/w-d-xo.html
Is there any footage of you putting it back together? specifically putting the air intake back on because I cannot put the air intake tubes back in and I am wondering if there is a trick to it or if I just need to brute force it. Someone help me plase
Brute force they are very difficult to get all the way into the lip but once you get it there it will lock right in. I bought my 02 and ran a maintenance check on it and one of mine was not fully seated nearly tore my thumb up from having to struggle so hard.
Sorry man I really don't know. Looked through the service manual too and it wasn't helpful. It mentions a starter clutch but I didn't see the actual starter.
@@EGIV Hey I was flipping through the service manual and found a pic of it. looks like it's where the rear subframe meets the true frame, if that makes sense. I'll send you a link to the service manual if you want it.
No better time to get it going! I've had a few people come up and comment on the bike. One guy said he really regretted selling his. I'd love to see a video of yours going!
Really helpful video. Recently bought a 2006 model and just starting to find my way around it. Your video really helped. 👍
Glad to hear it!

Hey thank you for the kind comment! I love being able to help occasionally
Air filter was upside down, that is why it didn’t fit properly, it even says “this side up” on the side you had downward.
Thank you for the video. 🤘🤘
Thank you so much for covering the f4i!! It's hard to find videos for this specific bike! Found this vid looking for gas tank removal.
Very glad to have helped! Let me know if you want any other specific video and I'll do my best!
@@Moturd Legend! Absolutely, will do. Thanks mate.

Thanks for doing these videos, really helped me get the throttle body loose. No doubt will keep helping with other things in the future too.
Thank you! Having done it, I should have used a heat gun (cautiously!) to loosen up the rubber.
Sweet vid bro, this will help others. I'm fitting to do my 06 f4i and clean it all up really nice.
Hey really appreciate the support! I understand that the 04-06 CBR f4i's are different than the 01-03's or I'd send you a PDF my the service manual.
You did a great job don’t be so hard on yourself
Those throttle bodies are tough to remove, go back on much easily though thankfully!
Just removed the throttle body on my 954. Remove the screws like he does, then there is a rubber seal that you need to CAREFULLY pry open with a crowbar (that what i used).
Thanks I’ll take a look
Great! 🥰
Which hose is connected to the map sensor
How did you get the throttle bodies off the mounts the kne bit i needed 🤣🤣🤣🤘🏻great video though dude
Hey there, sorry for the late reply. They are tough to get off. I recommend heating up the boots with a heat gun to soften the rubber.

Hey, thanks for this video, it's very informative. But I'm curious, what do you mean by wrong plastics in the beginning? They are not factory?

Hell yeah! Thank you for the tips. I may eventually get a liter bike but for now, this is all the power I need. Safe travels!
@@Moturd the F4i was lots of fun and plenty fast. I only got the CBR1000RR cause the deal was too good.. th-cam.com/video/ti1qGDpEYJE/w-d-xo.html
❤
Big credit and thanks to @Bryan Alexander here for his video

Where did you Order those turn lights. Cant find em lmao
Hi there, you mean in the back? I got that off Amazon. If you mean the front, I got them at Cycle Gear. Cheers!
Your missing these little cushions that go in the air box mine had it helped with dust also…
Oh thank you for the heads up! You don't have a part number by chance do you? Thank you!
So I found out those are discontinued and I couldn't give them for sale anywhere
Literally feel like you can make these your self
@@vanessab.3980 if I had a better picture and dimensions, I might be able to 3D print them. Does your bike have them?

Brute force they are very difficult to get all the way into the lip but once you get it there it will lock right in. I bought my 02 and ran a maintenance check on it and one of mine was not fully seated nearly tore my thumb up from having to struggle so hard.
There’s nothing missing from the fuel tank bolts mate,
Hey man nice video. I have an 02 with the same color scheme. My starter has recently gone out, where is it located?
Sorry man I really don't know. Looked through the service manual too and it wasn't helpful. It mentions a starter clutch but I didn't see the actual starter.
@@Moturd dang buddy. Seems things like that are top secret. Can't find out it's location anywhere. I certainly thank you for the reply though
@@EGIV very strange. Next time I have my tank up I'll take a look see
@@EGIV Hey I was flipping through the service manual and found a pic of it. looks like it's where the rear subframe meets the true frame, if that makes sense. I'll send you a link to the service manual if you want it.
@@Moturd Hey, thanks man. I spotted the starter but have no idea how I can access it. Please send me the link if you don't mind. Thank you my friend.
I have a worn out '02 F4i.
No better time to get it going! I've had a few people come up and comment on the bike. One guy said he really regretted selling his. I'd love to see a video of yours going!
im confused why you didn't just ride it to the hardware store for 3$ in tubing to just syphon the gas out lol..
Partly because I wanted to see how low I could get it and still ride and partly because I didn't think of that haha
What is the price this bike? please
I purchased it for $2000 USD in 2021. I've had offers at high as $2500 USD already. Cheers!
