Yea...that why I'll never get one. I mean first I have to spend almost $20,000 then you tell me IF I spend another $7000+ (kit plus labor), I'll have a bike that is comparable to a stock GSXR1000? Um, no thanks. I wanted an Aprillia so bad I could taste it but I just couldn't bring myself to pay $6000 more for a less capable bike.
