I put an R1 R/R on my CBR and it was really a nice improvement. And yeah, bigass wire and solder, baby! The Aprilia has the same issues with crappy connectors and undersized wire and batteries. Even my truck battery was struggling to gets volts to the starter, so I know I have a lot of stuff to clean up. Luckily the Yamaha parts are way cheaper, have beefier ratings, and bolt right in with minor connector changes.
