UK-based BFO Motorcycles has released sketches of its new limited edition frame kit, which will turn Suzuki’s GSX1300R Hayabusa into a lightweight 170 hp streetfighter. The new kit will sport under-seat exhaust and carbon fiber fairing, two features not included on BFO’s first frame kit, the switch:BLADE.

Pricing on the new streetfighter kit is tentative, but those who give BFO an initial deposit of £749.90 ($1,487) will receive a guaranteed maximum price of £8,249 ($16,361). At that price, this is not a bike you’ll want to drop. Production will be limited to 100 units.
