    2008 YZ 450F MX and/or SuperMoto

    Who woulda guessed? It's a long shot and if I'm going to give it away, I just assume keep it

    Reason #1, I really want an Aprilia SXV
    Reason #2, I don't want to go through the hassles of getting the YZ plated for the street, cost wise and registration wise.

    The bike... 2008 YZ450 special edition white bought new at the end of August 08. I have the MSO free and clear of any leans, it is NOT a street title. Very little use, I've done one Tony's trackday on it and it has about 1/2 hour break-in time riding the trails behind my house. That's about 3 hours total on the bike. Never down and it's in new/perfect condition. The oil+filter have been changed twice prior to the trackday and I will change it before it sells.
    All MX parts included with the bike, dirt wheels, stock brakes, stock master/line/calliper still connected, chain+sprockets. I also just replaced the acerbies rally pro hand guards with Cycra probend supermoto hand guards...I liked the look of the cycra better and they offer more protection.

    Supermoto stuff, I bought all this stuff brand new.
    ..Excell wheels (black), Talon hubs (gold) 3.5"x17" front and 5"x17" rear
    ..Michelin pilot power race tires, 160/60 rear medium, 120/70 front soft.
    ..Heavy duty tubes
    ..MotoMaster rear flame brake rotor
    ..MotoMaster complete race braking kit for the front, 12mm Master, stainless line, 4 piston calliper, calliper relocator bracket, 320mm rotor.
    ..Gold supermoto chain
    ..12,13,14,15 front sprockets
    ..42 rear sprocket
    ..Graves chain block
    ..Cycra probend hand guards (not shown in pictures but are on the bike now)

    There may be other stuff that I'm forgetting?
    Like I said, I've got the MSO (not a street title) and the factory service manual. I've got $9,500 invested in this thing and it has 3 hours on it. I'd like to sell it as a package just for time reasons but if I have to, I'll part the SuMo or MX stuff out. Part out prices will be based on ebay recent sales to keep it fair I'm also going to give it time before I decide to part anything, so save those questions for a couple months.
    $7,000 for everything.

    This season isn't gonna be the year I make a return, to much uncertainty in the economy for me to invest that much cash into racing

    I wish I had money. This would be a perfect toy. I could buy some ice tires for the winter... I should quit dreaming. I suck...

    Good luck with the sale Mark.

    Should have also mentioned I'd trade it towards a 08/09 Aprilia SXV 550
