yeah thats what I wrestle with all the time...I bought my bike because it was already customized, I probably never wouldve bought it brand new from a showroom. I dont see the point in paying top dollar for a brand new bike, that you'll be hacking apart and trying to make your own. You end up spending alot more money on something that you might not get top dollar for if you sell it.

On the other hand I still want to do my part in making the bike mine to prove to myself that im not a cherrypicker ..haha
