Wouldn't it be easier/cheaper to just change the final drive ratio?
Maybe you could get a limited slip at the same time?

I have no personal experience, but what I've read is that the factory recommends a new bolt when servicing.

Many people re-use without problems. Some pulley suppliers include a new bolt.

maybe with some details

Maybe more people would like it with a few details. You could paint the bars red etc.

Pure cheese, in my book.

I think there are other options for those vents that look way better.

You might as well put an RS badge on the back too!
