That's all very well if you can buy the parts in Japan, but ¥9200 is still £45 in today's money, and you still need to ship the parts, possibly add VAT @ 17.5%, and add a shorty cap & plug to the cost. Don't forget the bank charges to transfer money internationally too!

Apex listing the kits at £96 is a bargain! Even if all the parts have come in from Japan (including the plugs & caps which total about ¥5500) then that's £70 BEFORE tax, import duty, shipping, and thier resale profit margin!

Also, I agree, you can use a top coil with an angled lower cap, but it won't fit inside the stock bodywork, and there is a possibility of contact between tyre and plug. Again, fine if you are happy to hack a hole in your V-piece or are using a GRP fairing lower, but I prefer the tidy approach.
