It's basically a stripped down RR with Showa race suspension, HRC radiator and ecu and a few other goodies.

They came with rear seats, I don't recall if they had mirrors or not, they did not have any lighting.
kinda like the XZ-6RR

those look like stock rearsets, and showa racing suspension? Isnt that what comes stock on most bikes. All the race bikes are running ohlins or penske stuff.

Def sounds a bit fishy.

Showa does make some good shit, better than the stock stuff they put on bikes.
