He PMed me this question and this was my response. This if for anyone asking the same type of question

quote:
This is an alright deal(considering they were 12,000 new)

BUT, you could get a Cannibal or Speed for say 3,000 to 3,500, get ANY updates that the bike doesn't have(look for one with at least a Stage 8 Kit), and then get Houser Longtravel a-arms, with Elkas for $2,000, and by buying Elkas new, they would be valved for you, get a $400.00 dollar HMF pipe, Get it remapped as a Moto or Blaze or whatever you want(probably be worth it to buy a D&M kit for $300.00) and get the rear shock revalved for your weight and riding style for say $300 MAX. THEN you have a bike thats more setup exactly for you for about $6,000 to $6,500. You could even spend $800 to $900 on a new rear shock. THEN get into the aftermarket stuff you would put on the Moto, and in the end, you'll end up with a way better bike, thats setup FOR YOU. Plus you'll be able to make it perform whatever way you want with the D&M kit.

And another thing i didn't say, is the only thing bad out of doing that is you wouldn't be able to say "I have a Cannondale Moto" but what does it matter when its that hooked up

P.S. To answer your questions about the Stage 8(I sent you a PM about the D&M and forgot the Stage 8) the Stage 8 kit is a new type of bolt for your Crank Plate(can't remember the exact name) and it keeps the bolts from backing out like stock
