“Worth it” depends on if you value fork coatings, very expensive to get done. Used to call the WE a “bling bike” until looking into the cost of getting stock forks coated.
I'm confused as ML is attributing the power delivery to the rear holdup, and alluded to the suspension being the same as stock except the coatings. I thought this had an 18mm shock shaft instead of the stock 16mm.
There is no way you will get full suspension with Kashima uppers and DLC plus the full Yoshimura Exhaust and the factory R&D Mapping for anywhere near 2800 bucks.
