I wish I wasn't at work right now, so I could take a long time to just stare and take it in. Absolutely beautiful.

Has anyone done the this conversion yet???
Base model: 12000 GBP = $22866 USD
1098S: 14000 GBP = $26677 USD
Not sure about the speculation of a lower price? I guess I am glad I will be out of the country for a year beginning in late 2007. Upon my return in late 2008 / early 2009, I'll pick up a 2007 or 2008 used at a discount from one of you...

I noticed that too - seems like somethings wrong - no way the base price is going to be that high.
The other thing I was struck by - that exhaust shield is about the size of a frisbee - its got to go. Imagine that side of the bike with 1100ccs may be a tad hot.

That is what they call a lower price for a base model?

Yeah, the exhaust shield caught my eye too, but than how could it not... its enormous!!!! There will certainly be a nice carbon fibre replacement unit I'm sure... Here that Martin? Get on it!!!
