RBW is there a difference in how the suspension and exhausts effect the bike like the tires does depending on the soil compound of the track.

None of them matter... It is just what you like in terms of pipes, suspension, and tires. I thought the tires were different before, but I guess I was wrong about that as well. So set your bike up with whatever you like/what looks good to you but you will notice no difference in power/landing ability/traction. I promise on that one. I thought the paddle tire had the most grip before, but it was all in my head.

It's the sliders that you can adjust in the tuning part that will make the diffference for you after you upgrade your parts.

True. Only the actual tuning makes a difference, and even that's minimal. Run your favorite track with an untuned stock bike and you'll see.

I only run my bikes 100% stock for real. A little less control but they are noticibly faster

you know what works good for the 450s is to just leave the stock pipe on and upgrade everything else. Then you dont have as much torque and you get more traction instead of sliding out in corners.
