You put Sato rearsets on an Arsey and the value goes up $2k


That's why you HAVE to find a TL with the suspension and exhaust....otherwise it's gonna cost you an arm and a leg and it's not gonna be worth ANY of those mods unless you keep it for life.
I think part of it is the RC was set up well out of the box. We all know the rotary damper is only good as a paperweight. I opted for a bitubo shock and it worked well for me, and only have the yoshi rs-3 cans on there withthe stock pipes. The motor has weisco pistons now and a thinner headgasket, thats about it for my performance mods on the bike. Then again I iwll never sell it since that requires me putting it back together LOL
