Seems like the intl. is much cheaper :

according to the links : The only difference between the international and the domestic models is the throttle and idle cables. The international throttle cable has 22 mm of exposed inner cable and the idle has about 14 mm exposed inner cable.

Has anyone saved a few bucks by installing the intl. version on an american bike ? Doesn't seem like much of a difference, if any...

The French version of the bike has a different throttle body to meet local regulation.

I have no idea if the wrong cables will work or not.

As for saving a few dollars, you can get the right kit from American Sport Bike for $218, which is less than that ebay link.

Thanks Froggy. I will give Al a call. I was under the impression he didn't have any in stock

Froggy is right: the international throttle cables are for the french throttle body only.
And no, international throttle cables won't work with an US throttle body. Too much clearance.
