No it isn't by any means...If you actually save it and add other means of income to it that adds up, trust me.
But as for what I'm saving up for
And
Not particularly this bike, but ANY bike

pay yourself first! i used to always hear people say that and think, whatever. but really, PAY YOURSELF FIRST!
at the first of the year, i started having a set amount of money direct deposited into a seperate savings account and the rest deposited into my checking account. at first i thought i would have to do without and make some hard sacrifices in order to live on less, but nah. actually, by the time the next paycheck rolls around, i still have money left in my checking account that i can spend, plus the initial savings.
so i started to have 3 seperate categories of money. the money left in my checking account the day before the next check is deposited, i go get from the bank and have cash stacked at home.
so 1. i have checking account money for bills and expenses. 2. i have a cash stash that i use to cop sneakers or other impulse buys, but most of the time don't touch 3. i have my savings that i don't touch, and it's stacking fast.
try it.

It's really all about financial discipline. You literally just gotta keep your eyes on the bigger picture. Roughly 25% of my check goes to my savings account (get paid every week, temp. work). If I were you, I'd aim for $40 per check to go into savings. You're talking nearly $1000 saved up in a year. Cut out fast food as much as you can. Start out slow by bringing your lunch 1-2 days a week and you'll start appreciating the extra bucks in your pocket. But while you're tossing that $40 in the piggy bank, set aside an extra $20 for short-term savings (maybe you want some Jordans coming out soon). I found it sooo much easier to save for the long-term when I accomplish my short-term goals.
I'm saving for:

-LED taillights
