I have always heard they make there real money on parts. I guess this is proof enough.

I don't dought that it would cost that much to build one piece by piece. Isn't it cheaper to buy keg then it is to buy a 6 pack? And then the banshee guys don't realize that that twin was still made well after the R. And in more numbers. So naturally the Manufacture will have a stronger and cheaper supply on hand. Banshee guys are so silly.

A lil problem with that parts sheet is whole assembly's an the parts to rebuild them like the brake calipers for instance. So the price can be brought down some lol.

evry part in a intire 1987 honda trx 250 R. I guess he does not have spell check. I do have a few 1987 models for $29,000 if anyone wants to save $1,427.69:rofl:

The point the guy was trying to make still applies, I believe. Just like the vehicles you buy and drive from the dealership every day. They make more off of parts and labor then they ever do off of selling you the car.

They should start making plastic again and other parts because I know some guys who would be all over that! :onthego:
