i raced gsxrs (and a cbr) for a number of years and when you crash (which you will) parts are a dime a dozen. even at the track you can find someone with parts to spare. im currently building my rc for the track, and parts are hard to find (comparitively speaking). and at the track i wouldnt expect to find any parts at all so if i wreck i should hope to have the spares i need with me. i bought my rc because i had always wanted a twin, and i always wanted the rc. but the reality is that the more rare your bike is the tougher time you will have when you crash it.
