UK Suzuki to sell limited edition GSV-R Replica

Limiting the availability to 135 models of the special edition GSX-R1000, Suzuki is once again making us wish we lived in a place that got all the cool stuff. Making sure they outdo the Italian replica, each U.K. bike gets the standard factory-painted Rizla blue color scheme, as well as official Rizla Suzuki MotoGP graphics, twin Yoshimura GP Evo-II exhausts, an individually numbered top yoke plaque and certificate of limited edition coolness. You also get to choose between Capirex and Vermeulen.

Though we think plaques and certificates are excessive, the amazingly crafted twin Yoshimuras more than make up for the silly stuff.

Once again the UK is getting a one up on US (pun intended). But why didn't they just put on a full Yoshi system though?
