Re:back to basics build thread 4 Years, 1 Month ago  
build cost??? lol. well i bought the bike for 6500.00 with 9k on it i sold all the parts i dident want and used the money for the build and ive put maybe 600.00 cash and about 24hrs-painting so my total cost is 7100.00+24hours of my life and of course title and registration.

but i could say the biuld only cost me 600.00 and that went to dynatec,random s**t, headlight and the pillion seat. every thing else was bought with the cash from the old parts.

Were you able to sell off all the parts? Did you end up keeping anything? Bye the way, I bought the front fender rail and luggage rack, I had to sell the luggage rack, it didn't fit my 07, but the rail looks good. Thanks for the good deal.
