That's BS. That bike still has the stock pipes.
The Factory Connection team uses dual Pro-Circuit Ti-4s.

The ad seems to indicate that it was an actual race bike that has been put back to stock for resale. The radiators are certainly not stock and FC is offering to set it up for the new buyer. Is username fcr06 "Factory Connection Racing '06"?
"All Race Bikes have been completely rebuilt from the from the "ground up" using new components
Engine has been refurbished to stock specifications with new components
Stock Suspension is brand new and unused
Factory Connection will revalve suspension components to rider specifications (Labor is free, Parts will be discounted)
Rider # plate designates actual rider's machine"

All that looks like is some sort of replica, if it did happen to belong to the team it looks like a practice bike that got all the nice parts taken away lol
all of the 250F PPG suzuki race bikes are always sold at Hahm motorsports in so cal, but than agian they arent "works" bikes and the motor doesnt have any secret stuff..right there proves they can sell full race bikes,
PC sells there acually race bikes, they make the motor stock after they are done so you cant find any secret stuff

Not true, Pc sells their bikes with all mods the public can buy, some works head/porting and transmission is all thats not in there.........and they havn't been used at all......they never got to ride em..extras

The frame's too new looking (no boot scuffing) ,don't reckon that bikes seen many laps on a dirt track.

Has anyone noticed that the bike comes w/ 7/8" Renthal bars w/ the "Carmichael" bend. First of all RC is sponsored by ProTaper, I seriously doubt Renthal can use his name. Second, don't you think pros are going to be running 1 1/8" bars????????

um okkkk? i went to PC and almost bought one a few weeks ago because im sellin my 05' kx250f, but im a lil skeptical on how reliable they are.. They have them upstairs, they rebuild the motors with OEM parts and replace any special designed parts with OEM parts.. All the bikes go for over 6k used...they dont always have them, just every once in a while...
You can go the route you said and have them purchase you a brand new bike and they will special build it for you to your specs but thats wayyy expensive

I am friends with Bobby Kiniry (who rides for Motosport Outlet Honda) and he says that when they get a race bike they swap out the head and the suspension. Then when they go to sell it they put the stock suspension, head, and exhaust back on it. So this could be an old race bike. If it is a race bike, they have put the stock triple clamps back on, which hold the 7/8 renthal bars that come stock on the Hondas. This is theteam's way of getting rid of parts they don't use.

Looks like all you're getting there is some aftermarket radiators, useless engine covers, and cute graphics. :excuseme:
