Very nice, and great choice. Did you not look for another SP-2?
I have to say that a straight swap seems a bit steep, unless the SP-1 has <10,000 (genuine) on the clock. Even so, I'd want all the original bits (tail light/indicators/screen/rearsets/fender/exhausts) to go with it. The HRC stickers also appear to be in entirely the wrong place for some reason.

Great that you've got a mapped PCIII though. The fuelling is horrific on the 1 without, not to mention the power gains.

Good spot on the stickers,I'll investigate that.
As for another SP-2,yes,was looking around,but no local dealers had anything.
I don't really have the time or paitence for a private sale,so it had to be done there and then.
The 3 others I had found disapeered at an alarming rate,so my head was set.
"The next one,is mine."
As for the OEM stuff,I'll be picking it all up,as and when it comes up. |

Glad you're happy with it.
can't quite put my finger on why, but something doesn't look right about that bike.  ____________________ My Flickr |

Exhausts do look odd to my eyes, I think it may be the carbon mudguard making it look like it's riding high at the front that's throwing me.
Carbon akrapovics are the only cans for those bikes. For Colin Edwards cool points.  ____________________ My Flickr |
