I've broken alot of hubs, bent a boat load of rims, have never had a problem with a Talon, in my opinion one of the best hubs out there, that is if your willing to spend the money. Most of the aftermarket wheels are made in China, not sure about the Warp9, I have two sets of DNA, who say they are made in the USA, I think they are assembled in the USA and made in China, I ordered them for a high HP bike and after looking them over put them on lower hp bikes. I like Renthal r1 chains if your going non oring and Vortex sprockets, Pro taper bars, Wiesco pistons, the newer suspension whether it be the 06-13 250f Showa or the 07-12 450f KYB, holding out on the 13 so far, I have heard they lose air, ours has not lost any yet so we'll see. how much are the emig steering stems now, I think I have one that they made for me 5-6 years ago. I also like the TM designs chain guide, slider and rollers, mostly for the 450 but pretty much everything. I like the Pro taper full diamond grips, they seem smaller in diameter and don't make my hands go numb. I know some hate Motion pro cables but I use the terminator cables exclusively and have hade great luck with them. I have a pro moto billett kick stand that is way cool, but if your track riding you don't need that. whoever said go with the 450ish brakes is right on the money, the cable routing makes for a more progressive feel and if you can get a bigger back rotor, do so you will thank yourself.
