Hi, I'm new here. Perhaps interested in buying a used NC700SA. This for example.
I'm wondering how close I could get it to an X with some cheapish mods? (There are no older used Xs in Australia as the X was only recently released here). To make my question more specific, let's say I:
1) Found someone selling their original X suspension cheaply because they were upgrading - will this be easily installed on a 2012 SA?
2) Got an upholsterer to increase the thickness of the seat.
3) Changed the handlebars to sit more upright
4) Put on a touring windscreen
If I did all of that, in what ways would it still not be identical to an X?
