Default Aftermarket all day long
Considering some jap bikes last for 20-30years on an original item i would say aftermarket, it seems to be the genuine one that has the fault and is more expensive!

I installed an '04/'05 GSXR R/R and the bike runs better then ever. Found one from a motorcycle salvage yard for $50.

I do! I do! I think it was a 2002, but I really can't remember. Got it from a guy down the street for $35.
