$400 for a slipon? WTF?!
#1
I was just looking at toomey's slipon for the YFZ450. Its a ripoff. Maybe the price justifies that "toomey sound" lol!
I dont care how much r&d or production costs but 400 is overkill!!!

I guess im really tired of the atv market in general. Its rediculous for the prices on parts. I think some of it has to do with the american public thinking "the more expensive the better" which is a load of crap. So the aftermarket companies purposely raise the price to steer the market.
I remember in the mid to late 90's you could by a complete header/silencer combo for around 150. Same materials and labor of today.

Im kinda sick of the ridiculous prices myself. I will never build another quad like I built my 250R....big mistake=$$$$. Im selling it, so once it goes, Im done with quads for a little while. Maybe I'll get a new Zuki 450 once they get passed the first model year run.
