Yep, Toth are running what appears to be a near stock bike. Factory dash VS. the AIMsport or similar dash of the Factory bike. The factory bike is covered in the Deutsch Autosport connectors (which usually start over $115 each). There isn't many expenses spared in the Factory stuff, odd that they haven't been able to make the package competitive.

I noticed that. and they're using what looks like fork extensions so they can raise the front like the GSXR guys do.
I started a thread about this before. it seems like some folks feel the bike works better with the front raised way up and others are leaving it close to stock height. the graves team seems to leave it low and the european teams seem to be lifting it sky high.
