Just minding my own business, looking for stuff on my 250. And then, bam, there it is:

Now the question is, how much HP increase are we talkin’? Probably still more cost effective to just keep riding till I’m bored and get a used I4.

Don’t take this the wrong way, but $455 is pricey for a person who is all over the place about what to do about his bike. You been posting about up sizing a lot. $455 is a bit to throw at a problem your not sure you made up your mind what to do about.

I get whatcha sayin’.

I just thought it was cool it was an option.

I already decided a cheaper move to more power would be an I4, but you must have this much skill (think of roller coaster ride “you must be this tall to ride”) and I know I’m short.

I’d rather put that $455 towards the leather suit fund, I think it’d pay off better dividends.

I know I’d never recoup that $455 when I sell the bike, because no one cares if it’s the fastest 250 in town because they aren’t looking for that. I know when I was looking for my first bike, I used to get annoyed when people thought I was going to pay off their slip-on exhaust or their LED underglow that I didn’t care about in the first place.
