Its probably the same as the one that was on the F4... I had that and it was slightly more confortable than the F4i but still not as nice as the zx6r i've ridden on.

Nope 01 stock is more confortable for my bony *** than my f4i and f4i's. The seat always had that kevlar foam feel for me. I ride my f4i for 2hrs and i feel like I just got outta jail... if u know what i mean

i've never sat on the banana seats before but damn my '02 f4i seat is horrible. When i get to work after a 35min ride my *** hurts like ****. I really need to do something about my seat. I'm assuming its gotta be a lot more comfortable, thus, the reason for the change.

They changed it to differentiate the two models and their purposes a little more.

The F4i is already a capable bike, but since they have the RR now, they can soften the F4i's image a bit. I sat on the F4i for a couple minutes and it seemed ok.

my F4 has banana seat and i've sat on an F4i after riding my bike for couple months. lets just say mine feels like a lazy boy compared to it. it may not look as cool, but it makes the bike more conveniant, which is what its supposed to be
