    It would be nice if they released the complete engines and pipes, BUT if they were a significant proportion of that total price anyway, it would also be pointless unfortunately

    They get the engines from the Italian motorcycle manufacturer VINS.
    The bike that VINS builds with it is a lot more than $52,500.
