If he gets a brand new bike then there is no parts on it,it is just stock.Like he said,his bike with all the parts on it could beat any bike out there.Getting a new bike and getting it accessorized every year seems pretty awesome.But definitely not affordable for everyone.As Checkerz said,he has an 06 and he is still whooping guys out there on there 2010 Geico replica Honda.

Alright, time to clear the air. What I was pointing out is that woodpecka39 said that:
(1) He put parts on over time. To me this means he's has the bike a couple years and has slowly built it up. But as he said he got the bike 3 months ago, thats basically just putting everything on at once. Think 3 months compared to the life of the bike...

(2) He couldnt afford a new bike. Looking at the mods I think its safe to say he has enough money into the bike, unless he paid next to nothing for it, to have purchased a new bike.

Now over to Tyskorn...if you re-read what Checkerz said, he's on basically a stock 06 450, aside from suspension. He's passing guys on modded new bikes. This has little relevance to the subject of modded 05 vs. stock 2010. And I am in no way one of those spoiled kids that gets everything paid for and new bikes every year. I actually just bought my first new bike. And since i'm paying for it myself, I havent yet been able to put mods on it.


So here is my bike:
2009 KX250F
Polisport plastics (cuz I crashed and broke the stock stuff)
New msr clutch lever (took a tumble down the Washougal ski jump, bent my lever)
Teflon plumber's tape under the perches (so I dont bend more levers and break perches)
New oil filter (well, 3 times now)
No-toil air filter (courtesy of my friend's bike shop discount)
Factory Effex numbers (bought a set of 1's and a set of 7's after breaking the previous number plates)

Well looks to me as if those are some mods and if you are insinuating I get everything paid for and handed to me you'd be real !$#%@^wrong. I paid for the bike and every bit of stuff that has been put on the bike. i have saved my money sold old bikes so my pit bikes and worked for 6 summers and 3 winters for this bike and what I have done to it and I am in fact very proud of it and I dont give #@!$ what anybody said about it I like it and thats all that matter's

I have no idea where you got that idea from.

All he was saying, is

1) 3 months isnt a long time

2) Cost of old bike + cost of mods = cost of new bike

I paid 1700 for bike 2 sets of tech 10's 3 set of thor gear and 3 thor carbon helmet and I put 1600 in parts some used some new so add that up if you can. You get 4300 no where near enough to buy a new bike. Even if I put all that money down on a new one the tech 10 alpinestars cost almost 600 per pair and helmets are over 400 a peice and 2 sets of the thor gear have never even been rode with 2009 model and the is 2008 gear so why the #@!! would I buy a new bike? New bike's are way to expensive for what your getting. Say you buy the new bike in 2 month's that brand new cool factor is gone I get as much a kick out of parts as I would a new bike I dont know why nobody on this forum cant get it through there think head _____ couple year old bike + mods = kick ass bike _________new bike = waste of money Just my opinion
