Is that an upgrade? Also, just how many bikes are you planning on having? I will be the first vulture on your current 250 if you part it out...lol

Yeah, but yours isn't exactly stock... so a stock pregen wouldn't be as fast as yours

I was actually thinking of getting a pre gen as a track beater one day so I can learn to ride better and push it to the limits.

Pregens are awesome! I don't know why everyone's so quick to get the newgens. It's quick, it comes with a handle on the back so that you can pick it up if you need to, and it's easy to work on. I did a valve adjustment with a goddamn screw driver!!

If you prefer the pre-gen, then by all means get one.
I personally have to always lean towards the new-gen. It simply handles better out of the box, especially for my weight with its preload settings.
