And the good news is that, according to the reports in the comic, all the bits that you might want to update your existing ST2 including quote "A range of cylinder heads has been designed to [pep up the old two-valve motors and] fit onto existing bottom ends and barrels with even the intake and exhausts in an identical position".

Bits that interest me include the new 3 valve cylinder heads, the redesigned seat (to stop Mrs Jools slipping forward) and they look like straight bolt-ons then. Shouldn't be too long before they start appearing at a breakers near you.

Jury is still out on the top fairing. From the piccy on P16 of MCN it looks like they've done a 'cut & shut' job on a 916 type fairing and added Honda lights, I might be tempted to buy a 916 style nosecone and a pack of fibreglass and have a crack at doing something like that meself (except with a couple of projector lights either side by side or stacked), but if i change my mind the new nosecone should just bolt straight on as well (a bit high though isn't it - shudders at the thought of Rickman fairings)
