Are you starting riding? If so then definitely don't get the R1, even the F4 will have dangerous power for a newbie.

That being said the F4 will most likely keep it's value better, or if you can get a F4i (Fuel injection) even better. The reason I say this is the R1 is a bike that is preferred by a smaller, niche market for resale. Most people can't afford the inurance on a R1 while the Honda F4 is preferred by a larger group of newbies and intermediate riders.

get an f4i for sure, it was my first bike and i had lots of bolt ons on it to satisfy me for sure. I wanted something faster by the end of the season though, but thats because i am a nut case. Try to get away from carbuerated bikes as fuel injection didn't become popular until about 98.
