Kids who buy parts when they don't need them

Stop calling out certain members of the forum. Are you all really THAT immature? I mean COME ON...

Also, Bikers and skaters do the same stuff, it's not just scooter riders. If you have money, and you don't like your scooter, what are you gonna buy? New scooter parts. Obviously. Not everyone is gonna sit around and wait for their stuff to break. Plus, what people do with their money is their business.

After a while I get sick of looking at something and change it, you need change in life to keep it interesting. Still don't have any cash though :( want some new wheels, stupid bloody things are shaped like an aussie rules ground and worn down to about 94 mm :(

i've paid for my whole scooter, and ive changed it alot. I like to try new things, but i think the only thing my parents have payed for is a headset cuz i got a certain number of goals in a certain number of games for hockey

90% of my scooter parts are from sr. I started with one scoot and now I have three. What can I say? I'm a good trader lol. Everything I buy I pay for myself. HOWEVER. I like to try new things, and I can see both arguments. I hate the side that's clearly jealous about the parts people are getting tho. It's so immature. It really isn't your business. And if it's their parents money? Still not your business. Just ride your scooters and live with it haha

I couldn't get jealous over scooter parts. Thats just low. I have an average scooter, solid, spins nice, and feels good. Therefore I can't see myself changing anything on my scooter unless it breaks, regardless of what new parts come out.

And I didn't spend loads on it either. It cost me about £100 ($158) and I can't imagine riding anything else! I just love it.

I think people these days tend to go with the concept that the parts that cost the most are going to be the best, however I would say my $35 RUP bars could stand up to most other aftermarket bars out their.

Eh. It annoys me to see $500 scooters being ridden by kids that can't 360. I'll admit it. But in the end it's just money going toward companies making parts that help better riders.

That's why I can see both sides of the argument Rob cuz I'm the same way. But not to the point of making a thread bitching about it. It really isn't that important.

a few years ago if some kid who didnt need it had rad bars and sr forks it would have pissed me off because there werent that many after market parts around and it was pretty hard to find, but now there are so many companys making shit that it's really not a big deal. it's just putting more money into the sport.

Putting more money Into the sport kinda sucks in a way IMO. Because that means the sport grows a lot more. I like it more when it's smaller, like a small town.
