I would also suggest that before you jump take a looks at cost for aftermarket options as well. A used exhaust will can set you back a grand. That said What a SWEET Bike to Ride!
I'm interested in just the base line 999 not the S or R spec from 03-04. The exhaust I'm looking at for my RC is gonna set me back about 1500, so the price of parts is not gonna be too different.
