I understand your point of view too George. In Asia a lot of bikes are being used not for leisure but mostly for commuting from work/home. In this case riding in local streets must be driven with caution. Riding outside of the city is much more enjoyable since the purpose of riding is entirely different. We all need to be careful and take good care of ourselves!~~

The upgrade I have done is Tires (I like more grip on the road), Exhaust (I like it loud for some reason), and a computer to control my fuel/air when racing. Other than that, everything else is factory. :) Funny thing is that its the stuff you dont see that gives the most performance... hehehehe Tires and Computer. :)
