seems like this must be a coomon prob, I have an F4 with only 1000k's on it (3 weeks old) and it started the noise at about 600kms old, it comes on at about 3500-4000rpm and then again at 4500-5000rpm, I was paranoid about it but the bike shop said its nuthin to worry about, so now i just either ignore it or ride around it...... but if it gets worse i might look into a warranty replacement job. It just get s annoying during inner city commutes!!!
have fun Cool

exact same symptoms and rmp range as my f4 and f4i
anoying as hell.

Dr.McNasty, 9,000 to 10 or 11,000 rpm rattle is probably your key rattling in the ignition. Rev it to there and put your finger on the key. If the sound goes away, that's what it is.  

I had them change out the ignition switch (and the rest of the key cylinders so the keys all atcm) under warrenty when my F4 was still new.  It didn't help and the shop later told me that they mostly all do that.

For a while, I put a foam ring around the base of the key.  That worked but eventually I lost the ring and never bothered to make a new one.


As a matter of fact I thought that so I tested it before and that was not the case .. But thanks for the thought!

I think you guys need to put ear plugs in & enjoy the ride.
If its that serious you will know Grin

 Smiley ya my damn f4i does that rattle when moving thing too when its within certain rpms( above 4,500) ever since i bought it a friend had his cct replaced ( warranty work) and he said the shop claimed they did 9 so far this year, he road mine and said he can barely hear it but sounds kinda like his. every one seems to have this problem huh Smiley.

but im pretty sure i jacked my front bearings clicks when the front bobs up and down hard Sad ( learning wheelies before i got setting it down right) so its gotta go in this winter.
