Wheel powdercoating: $120.00

Parts so far: $2767.90
Maintenance so far: $92.73
Labor so far: $195.00

Subtotal so far: $3055.63

$3055 a third of the cost of a new one plus whatever the wreck cost in the first place, but I guess it's good to have a bike you have nurtured back to health !

Yea that's more or less why I'm doing it. This way I get a bike the way I want it. Plus if you think about it, for $10k (the price of a new one) I would have HALF the stuff I have on this bike so it would be just another 6 on the road

So do you have an XS750/850 in the shed that I can restore and send back to you that would be cool ... it wouldn't be another XS on the road perhaps the only one ...
