What kind of parts? Ohlins for a bike = $800+, but I could get an adjustable Koni for a car for only like $150 each.

Or how about tires? Two tires for $250-300?........I could easily buy a set of 4 car tires for that.

Oil and filters........again, more for the bike.

Try buying an American car and the parts will be cheaper.

Just changed my F-150 fuel filter. OEM was 17 bucks.

Ohlins for a Miata: $2,689.00. Koni isn't anywhere near the same league!

Same think for auto tires - your $250-300 set isn't going to perform very well.
