And 1985 called, they want their pencil-thin forks back right away.

Lighter/smaller exhaust and beefier front end....I'm in.

The exchange rate is very close to 1:1 for cars and motorcycles, at least for many EU manufacturers ;)
A tail chop of that ugly plate mount, Exhaust similar to Boomtubes or a Spark 2-1, Beefier Ohlins forks and some Clip-ons. I'd be in on that.
Love it!!!
Like it. Had a ZRX12R for a few years. Was a really good bike.

Love it. The exhaust will have to get some aftermarket treatment, otherwise looks really nice to me.
