Yeah - but it's a modded Falco - far better than a MilleR will ever be.

Really!
I expect they get pissed off because you force up the price of replacement parts because you should have bought a Mille in the 1st place.

If I had wanted to have bought a Mille, I would have done....
Vastly different bikes - that share some parts :)
And the Mille boys should thank us - we find all sorts of replacement parts for them

Exactly what I found, it's not just bling, keep telling yourself that.
But they do really look good don't they!
It probably makes the bike more economical as well, turning less weight around, but perhaps that's taking it too far, so just enjoy.

Like is better than dislike, therefore money well spent

As long as you have the cash, I think these upgrades are usually money well spent.
If you need the money in the future, you can often sell the goodies for what you paid for them - and for some things the prices are rising.
If you loose a bit, well you've had some good use from them.
What's more for each change you get a "new" bike that's better than before - how much would that cost if you were to keep chopping in and changing?
Effectively new bikes on the cheap.
