I really like the look. I love the pipes. I just think that they should have done more than just pipes and paint on a standard GSX-R 1000. If they added a full engine kit, Ohlins suspension, and some lightweight bits it would be really cool. Make it something truly special. Something like the equivalent of a Ducati 1098R, take the standard bike, add 20HP, cut some weight and add trick suspension bits. Oh well, I guess that stuff is easy enough to add later.
