And you'd also have an import that points it's lights the wrong way.

Do DK now throw in a free Ohlins shock, AP brakes, dymag wheels... plus whatever it's had done to the swingarm. It's not worth the asking price but it's also stupid to compare it to a stock bike frankly, those first 3 things I mentioned alone cost more than my SV.

Course they're not neccesary, but they'll make it a hell of a lot better. The guy's messed up by not posting a full list, since it's not a blingmobile most people will just scroll straight on.

But still, not worth the money. He'd probably do better parting it out.
