An R model should be for top-notch performance parts, only.
Leave the bling for those that care about such unecessary additions.

I know what you're saying, but a bike that's decked out with (say) radial Brembos, fully adj. suspension etc. etc. will look very 'off' with that cheap nasty sprocket on the back. The rest of the striple as it comes now is so much tidier and well finished that the sprocket stands out like a sore thumb. For the R version they should at least put a steel sprocket made to the same standard as those on the bigger triples.
Just my $0.02
