Please, you guys take these little bikes way to serious there just cheap throw away toys there not life. These toys are fully depreceiated by the fourth year and are only worth 13 or 14 hundred bucks if they show 5 or 25 thousand miles. If you want to buy a worn out used one it's buyer beware but if I were to ever buy a used one it's the overall condition not the miles that would sway my decision.
But I'm 38 and like most older members here am financialy secure and could care less if I get a $100 or $200 more or less for this bike when I sell it. If this thing needs any serious money put in it I will just sign off the title and push it to the road.
It's too bad so many forums go this way a member posts a unpopular question and others berate them because it doesn't fit in with there lifestyle or there beliefs. This is where moderators should step in and do there job.
I'll probably ride this bike until some manufacturer comes out with a 450 version or it's junk could care less either way. Cousin Larry almost swayed me into a 351 kit but I just can't see spending $600 on a bike that's only worth $1400 so I'll just wait until one of the four makes a street legal one. And buy it new.

I know where some of the people (me included) are coming from when they comment on the illegal and unethical action of turning back an odometer. I don't think there is any valid reason to do this.
I think however that some of the comments wishing death upon you are completely inappropriate and over the top and I agree with you that moderators should step in on a thread like this one to screen both the initial content and some of the subsequent comments. For what it's worth.

My bike aint no toy, it cost me too much to be a toy. And winding back your speedo is both unethical and illegal with any luck someone will catch you out and you will be fined.
