Well its hard to say.

The bike was 7500.

A lot of the other stuff Im not really sure. I work at the shop so I do get a discount on parts. Some stuff I did myself so its pretty much free. Other things just came together.

The most expensive was the exhaust. After its really not bad. Id say add about 5000 give or take a few depending on what you go with to the cost of the bike to have what I have now. Oh and a bunch of weekends. So what ever your time is worth. Then again you could just buy a bike and give it to us. We can transform it for you.

The best advice I can give is dont buy what you cant afford Too many people go crazy and end up the year with a 20,000 dollar note to pay off. This bike has all the best stuff I could afford. When I say that I mean no credit card bills.


Over all I couldnt be more pleased with the entire process. I wish I could do it every year. Obviously its a lot of fun to ride the bike but the satisfaction of riding one I built is hard to explain. All I have left is the dyno tune which will hopefully be done by next weekend and to place the decals on it.

Thanks Im very pleased with the outcome. Pete said the bike was working pretty good today for him. I think he said he was in the 16s with it. Just a few small things we have to get sorted. Hopefully thats all done by Monday so I can hop on and go. My list of people to thank for how good it has come out keeps growing. Kates is #1 on the list. I guess thats why I let him ride it
