| SS or monster is a personal choice, they handle differently, either would do though! See what you can find cheap.
Twin discs are not necessary provided you run decent pads, i recommend Performance Friction, i ran a single disc for 3 meetings and had no brake problems at all. You can add a second disc providid you have the caliper mount on the fork leg if you prefer.
Suspension - not much wrong with standard provided it's in reasonable condition, just set the shock up correctly.
If you go for a monster you'll need high level cans and rearsets, you can make do better with standard bits on an SS.
Spend the money on trackdays!
As for costs, realistically £3K all in, includes buying the bike and prepping it, cheap leathers, entries, couple of trackdays, tyres etc. You can spend more of course!!! |
