I don’t know much the kits are but my CBR600 was £1500... The carb versions are often available for less or you could possibly find a VFR for similar money which is more ‘touring’ and less ‘sport/touring’.

Looks like the Chinese kits, likely made of cheese, are barely £100. The EO kits made in the US cost as much as another bike, at nearly a grand. But then you are buying an almost entire new engine. Definitely not worth the money to me, but worth an evening of research.
Is your CBR comfortable for long days?

You sound like every forum post out there (mostly of the guys who haven’t fitted them!)
It’s more rabbit-hole for the sake of research. Plan to pass the test, but wondering longterm whether if I keep the 125 I can squeeze a little more out of it.
Of course, if I had the space and money I’d buy a 600-750 touring machine and be done with it.
