Indeed it could be more desirable (better shocks and rotors couldn't be a bad thing), but price is dictated by the Holly Jap Quad (Blade, Kwak and the likes).

Anyway you should try one (with DTC). A bit surreal and lethal...but I'm still in one piece (good karma maybe, he he).

Ultimately of course a 1198S is a far better passion maker regardless of ponies, gizmos and dyno graphs.
