I got the tube with 'choices' and ended up using the stock cam. The rest tamed it down so much it lost all of it's fun. I guess it depends on what you are trying to achieve.

Ohlins 2.1 Damper

Has anyone tried one or heard how they work? It looks pretty cool and it fits under the bars without raising them like the Scott's sub-mount. Pricey though.

Suspension longer, no ABS and more high end power on the R. You could lengthen the stock stuff but I am thinking $1500.00?? I have an '11 R and if I were you, I would save $2G's and get the leftover.
