I agree about a stock bike having a great platform to change/ customize. I think changing up a bike and making it your own just attaches you more to it. And, it's part of the fun of owning a bike! But hey, if stock is what makes you happy... then by all means leave it stock and enjoy it!

Heres the real question...Do you leave a bike stock because you truly want a stock bike? Or can you not afford the mods you want so you are content to have a stock bike? I rode my Sporty stock for the first year I owned it because I could not afford to do anything with it. I had myself convinced the a stock bike was all I needed. Then one day some funds opened up and guess what? I no longer liked my stock bike!
