Put the 09 back to stock .. Use all your goodies but the PC and lockup on your new bike .. Then 6k would be a good deal .. you would be getting about 8500 out of your old bike and keep the goodies you allready paid for .. sell the P/C but keep the auto tune , sell the lock up .. Use that money to get a 2012 P/C5 and hook up your auto tune ... Sell the lockup and get one that fits the new 14r ... problem fixed ..

Think about it this way would you spend 6500 for 30hp if so then go for it.
Man the GenIII 14 envy has started. Also you have a nice setup bike with I assume more than a 30 shot of nos so yes you will go slower with the new bike . Also you have to add back in the cost of the "lowered stretched strapped pc5 auto tune flys out brocks ct heli bars buell pegs cycle logic lock up dyno tune nos etc etc" so to me no way is it worth it. But if your envy is high then nothing will stop you anyway. I would say if you just buying a new bike then get the latest if you have one already setup then don't bother.

so for about 6500 out of pocket you would have a 2012 with auto tune all of your other goodies including a 30 shot of nos.. .. do it.

That's what it costed me out of pocket not including the extras I had to have. Figured into that $6,500 figure was also a 4 year extended warranty, which is peace of mind in my opinion. For that reason not to mention all of the new bells and whistles, it was a no brainer. My dealer is awesome, they stand behind everything they do..... Not everyone has the same opinion on money getting spent, but the one thing I know is - I can always make more.

Like they say there is one born ever second.
the man asked if the new bike was worth 6 grand to upgrade.
Now mr. please tell me can he get more out the bike he has for 6 grand or should he get only 30 hp more with the upgrade. I'm sure the bike with nos is faster then the bike he will be buying.
Not everyone has the same opinion on buying new bikes. but one thing I know is I can always make a last Gen bike go faster for less money than buying a new one.

So, if the turbo bikes are so great, why are they so easy to find so cheap?
The question really comes down to, "Do you want a faster bike cheaper, or the latest and greatest?"
I bought my 2010 ZX14 one year ago and I wish I would have waited one year, but I will NOT trade it in.But that is just personal preference (and economics) I will probably buy a new bike in a few more years (and turn this one into a super sport touring bike (heli risers, C-14 seat, saddle bags, etc.)

It's more then horsepower.Stiffer suspension,better cooling,traction control and more torque down low where I do my riding.Not everyone is a dragracer only.

Not sure your location but your used 09 won't get 8500.00 here back to stock. Monster edition close to me with 1500 miles on it for 7500.00 obo. I couldn' t get an offer on mine for 10,500 with BST's and thousands in other parts and it's a 2010.

cause people are stupid.. they rather spend $10,000.00 to install a turbo on their current bike than to buy a turbo bike thats all upgraded and has all the bugs worked out .. then after they blow a motor because they had no clue on how to operate a turbo bike .. it was then the turbo's fault.. so then all turbo bikes are bad .. so then lets sell everything for pennies on the dollar... in most cases .. THEN sometimes they just scare the shitt out of themselves and have to sell it ..

I'm keeping my Monster with 5700 miles for a few more years.Too fast and new to sell it now.Everytime I look at it I realize how beautiful it is.Just my opinion but mines the only one that counts.

What a tool.
