i agree with that, if its your only form of transport keep the standard kit. i use a tl1000 for work every day so the nsr only comes out when i wanna whop some 4 stroke ass!
as for mileage of the pistons i have no idea how long they'll last. but like i said im just changing the ring just to make sure.
5 year ago when i bought my first nsr250 i thought id use it for everyday use but it was hard work keeping on top of it. sometimes i cover 400 mile a week at the mo. which would be too much for the nsr. having said that theyd be fine for just general commuting.
as for the power of the bike andy sure theres more ponies in there but my bkes a bike of an experiment, ive been trying to build it using other bike bits to uprate it. im gonna call it frankeinstein!!
06/07 r1 shock
cbr400 swing arm
rs250 yokes
cbr600rr calipers
bbs rear wheel. front wheel will be fitted in the next week or 2 when ive finished making the spindle for some aprilia 06 rs125 forks. once the rs forks are fitted i'll have a trick front end up for sale.
it'll be certainly different when shes finished
