Rear shock + fork for an F4i

Just getting the ride hight would take some adjusting.
The rake is also determined by the triple trees - make sure the offset is the same between the f4i and the 929. Make sure the spring rates are close, and with compression and rebound adjustment you should be able to dial in some decent handling assuming the forks are in good shape when you get them...
