Just done the deal on a VFR 1200F DCT after my GS and looking around at ways to personalise it.
I've been amazed at the difference in the prices of aftermarket accessories.
As an example, footrest lowering kit from Nippy Normans is £134. What appears to be at least as good, and made in the UK, costs £39.
Bar risers, again, UK made, cost around £100 less.
Usual story. If it's got BMW on it, jack up the price. They can afford it.
Mind you, Honda seemed to have taken their lead from BMW when pricing their own accessories.
