Bill, there are loads of fantastic bikes out there for relatively small amounts of money, sometimes it does make you question the sanity of what we choose to do, just the cost of a few mods would go a long towards buying you a top of the range machine, just have a quick count up front to back, Speet brakes, Emmanuel headstock, BT-H mag, Alton, Avo rear shock, of course that is after you have spent vast sums of money rebuilding the engine that you were told had been meticulously rebuilt by a marque expert!
