but what i think the OP means is referencing the bikes that look like the 'av it' one and the god awful white and pink mess that was on ebay not so long ago.

My bike is basically as it came out of the crate ( although I suspect the front springs/oil were done, as its firmer than I remember ) and yet it feels like its on rails to me.
I do have my suspicions that most of these modifications are a waste of time, and the money would be better spent on learning to ride the bloody things..
I really do believe people should stop blaming their bike for their own shortcomings as riders.
negative, if you read the OP it would suggest that he was putting forth that instead of modding the suspension / frame and engine etc you should mod your riding, i don't for one minute think the post was directed at tasteless bling or paint schemes, or at least the way it was wrote does not suggest as such.
Sometimes it's harder to write what your thinking on forums than it is to talk face to face 
and then we have to take into consideration, where somones from, what era they are from, and thier local lingo etc.
as much as cagers on mobile phones while driving.
