If i remember correctly, that price does not include the megaphone exhaust, that will set you back another $1500 at least

correct. the price is for the shop time, head, pistons, cam and engine stuffs. the exhaust is optional but it must be modified to be free flowing in some way for the 210, the 240 needs a header because they port the HECK out of the head but i was under the impression that the 240 can get away with the stock manifold but it must be ported as well but will not be a 240, more like 230. , at the price for having them do the 240 job, the exhaust is a less than 10% additional cost. If you can afford to have the 240 job done none DIY, you have the $ for the rest of the stuff. Sticker shock i know!

Even with the shop labor, its worth every penny in both the quality of workmanship and the fact that its still less $$$ than buying a motorcycle that can be a comparable ride. Most of the guys i know on the "track" have motorcycles in the 30K to 50K price range ... the very competitive professional rider... heck i prices out quality USED track gear for 5 seasons at $4 grand that factors crashing into the $ math.

My point is that 20 grand (with the cost of the bike originally plus a full out build from carpenter is actually cheaper than buying a pro level bike apples to apple

The quote included their sidewinder exhaust system, so you're saying the megaphone is sold separately?

When you are a grown man with all the bills paid you can afford to play with late life money. Buy what you dream of if it won’t hurt the family.

That is the way mine came back, with the same exhaust it was sent off with, also without air filters, you could see the throttle bodies and butterflies when you removed the bear claw, Bud called Bob and he said it wouldnt hurt anything, also, Bud took it to the dyno and the HP was way lower than advertised, Bob said he needed the Megaphone to get the HP needed, Bud got the Megaphone and took it to the dyno again, this time he had 139 hp, close enough.
He did not trust the Oklahoma roads since they are always under construction so he installed K&N filters, he knew he would lose some HP but he was fine with it since filters are cheap and engines are expensive when sand gets in them.

I will never be a grown man

This is also one reason I want to go with the 265hp is that with the exhaust and intake I want to run it's not exactly 265...

Riding a used Rocket you just bought 1700 plus miles from Sacramento to Tulsa in one day makes you a grown ass man. Riding without a wind screen elevates you to hero status. Sacramento-ins still whisper your name late at night
