Is the Ohlins bling really worth £1000+????

The simple answer is NO.

Even if the bike comes with Ohlins as standard, and especially depending on the age its worth getting the suspension serviced/set up for your individual requirements.

IMHO i'd rather spend money on suspension before money on the engine, but thats from my personal point of view for road riding rather than just track use, but i'm sure a lot of regular track dayers/racers would agree as well.
