inverted leads to less fluid overheating as well, but the mere fact that the dampening is down low is a nice touch I think. My HKS's are like that too and makes adjusting, should I want to (I don't) really easy

Got her down to 1050 lbs. this year with the carbon body, chassis and motor mount mods. Should be a hoot this year with the built gixxer motor too. The Ohlins are what really make it sparkle. If you miss the apex a little bit and the front wheel goes up inside on the curbing, you can still go hard on the gas without missing a beat.

How much were the Ohlins for the Z? That would almost make me come back to the Z as a track car if they had the external resevoir model available for under a million.

Looking at the inverted rears, the rear shocks do come with pillowball upper shocks mounts, correct?
