It's hard to search for "F4i." IIRC, the Search engine does not let you search for words that have three letters or less.

Yep. At least one SHF member has F4i calipers.

F4i, 929, 954, RC51, 600RR and maybe another bike I can't remember all use calipers that are externally identical (except for color).
They will bolt up to the Super Hawk, but they need a little material ground away to clear the bracket on the Hawk fork. It takes about 5 minutes to do this. I would suggest replacing the master cylinder, too, since calipers and master cylinders from the various Honda models have different piston sizes and are designed to work as a system.
Here's a link to a thread on this topic.
