mate..they look cool..but did u see the price?? $7500!!
looking at the fairings..$565 for a full set..wonder if i can find cheaper??..the road glass in aus is only available at one place, and they want $700..then i have to modify to make lights etc fit..

Yeah saw the price on both the cost of a brand new 600 especially seeing thats also US $ but could there be that much difference in feel and quality compared to something 1/4 of the price, or is something u would only notice on the very limit that GP & SBK is ridden???

i don't reckon a "street" bike needs that kinds pulling-up power (it is the same tyre/contact patch we are talking about!)....
on another note.... why do those forks have that extra gold cylinder on there? what's that 'spose to do?

It contains the gas (as per motogp things). These forks use gas as opposed to oil as it's meant to be less prone to heat-degradation (big word for me).
