Hey Luke it's been a while hope you are well.
I'm on the central coast now so half the distance bring your 954 down when I get the moto for a photo shoot if you want!
Anthraxxx I can't find any pics from your link :(
Did you get it yourself or have an import company get it for you?

Cheers mate
I'm not sure that the kit does anything for the handling,the coilovers changed it like night and day.
I think any aerodynamic advantage would be blown out of the equation by the vicious torque steer and wheelspin,but jeez it's fun to thrash
