| Frank the Exhaust hanger was given to me at Kempton Auto Jumble so it cost me nowt and if I didn't have it I would make one at work. As for the Front Diablo the bike did come with tyres and I have done a deal on them with a mate for some other bike bits that have a value pf £40, about the same value as a used front Pirelli Diablo.
As it is I now have a pile of standard SS bits that will grow futher when I sort the race seat , shock and remove rear light indicators etc. And in that Pile is the original engine and carbs, full fairing, headlight, clocks, bars, standard can etc.
As for the Braided hoses, its debateable if you need to change all 3 maybe just the brake hose, normally I make up the lines myself and each line usually costs me just under £10. I did go and get some -3 hose and fittings to make the clutch line and as in the post about 1/3 the way down the page you will see I was given 100% discount so I could have done just the brake hose for £0, I also have 3 unused Red coated aeroquip hoses at home that cost me £10 from Newark autojumble that I could have used, so on top of the figures you see there is not a lot that should be added. Even the original engine may be a cheap fix which again could have made the project a couple of hundred pound cheaper. But as the M600 enginge came along at the right time with the right price tag having just been fully serviced I took the easy route due to time constraints.
Hopefully the final price for the shock will come in at the bottom end of the price range.
And to be honest the fairing is priced at more than it cost me but at a price I have paid for others.  |
