stclark816 Posted May 4, 2005 Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 Bought the bike brand new for $6200, including all motor work, bling, wheels, plastic ect.. Prolly $9000 in after market parts as it sits. That doesnt include everything Ive boughtin before it sits now.. It's gone through about 3 makeovers... Makes me wanna cry kinda... First. Second. Third. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BdBanshee Posted May 4, 2005 Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 (edited) Paid $2900 for it new in '88, and have replaced most things once, and some several times. The list of things that are still original is very short. I try to always buy a better part than the one that wears out or breaks. Almost 17 years of riding it later, lots of $$, but a hell of a lot more !!!! Edited May 4, 2005 by BdBanshee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
