I’ve never seen a replica bike with works parts. But dang, the Ti kit alone is worth the price.

I wonder if PC gives some of their guys the actual championship bike or if theyre all replica championship bikes? Either way his replica bike is trick. Theres no way in hell id get rid of any championship bike if i ever won one.
That say's a lot about his character. Props to CP.
There's something happening here, what it is ain't exactly clear.
I think championship bike is at PC shop along other bikes they have at show room for visitors.
Just shows how good he is outside of circuits. Guy has big heart.
Hope the kids actually see more of the money in the end than they did with Pourcel's "Charity days" in France.
Edited Date/Time:
If thats real he's being a twat or he's seriously hard up for it.
Charity aside, when he's old and grey he will regret not having mementos like that for sure.
Cheers, Crush

Pourcel is a guy who seems not to like accumulating things, I saw him once selling everything he had at home, and if this time is partly for a good cause, it's very good. The bike looks great, what happens that the issue of customs is more accessible to the people of the USA. What happens if then you ride with it and it breaks something and you need a replacement, to see if they sell it and at what price ...

Not sure about PC but I believe most champions typically get their race bike, not a replica. I could see selling a replica but I agree, definitely not a championship works bike.
i just want to know if it's being sold with the magnesium carburetor... SERIOUS baller part right there

Says modified carb, but I doubt it's magnesium.
Regardless it's a badass bike, full ti, procircuit motor, KHI parts, A kit suspension, besides the kx was THE bike in 2010.
All the weight saving stuff was probably kept along with the non-proprietary hardware. I'd make sure the top end was pulled and replaced with mildly modified stock, the fork and shock internals swapped out with std A-kit parts and any electronics pulled. Can't give away any secrets!
