There is a lot of curiosity surrounding this bike, but we will have to wait about a month in order to really find out any details. At this point I don't think anybody trusts the EFI on the bike. As far as how it responds to mods, that also depends on what type of system it runs. Pitster Pro used a Kayo EFI on their bikes, which was a self learning/adjusting setup that could actually compensate for changes like an exhaust. The problem with that system was mainly the reliability of the system itself and the related parts.

The Digital cluster it comes with will likely be inaccurate, but that is just speculation based om my own distrust of the factory supplied stuff. At least it would finally come with a tachometer.

The inverted forks would be a welcome improvement in terms of rigidity, even if they likely wont function any better in terms of damping.

I would trade all of the fancy farkles it comes with for a better rear swing arm with a progressive shock linkage to go with those new USD forks. I would also trade the EFI system for a carbureted RE250 engine so I could have a 6th gear.
