[AK]

err, budget - aint much

Bike - under 4 figures
tyres - deal from tyreman
new chain & sprockets
replacement rockers
pistons & boring - this is the one thing that has eaten into our budget by approx £100 more than expected
rear damper - refurbed, as cream crackered, under £100
front forks - being rebuilt, as cream crackered, cost tbc.
rear sets? - the pair of superlight ones that came with AK's project bike originally ( now tricolour) were fished out of a storage bucket - and they fit
Clip-ons? - also out of a bucket of 'might be useful one day spares'
Lockwire & pliers, trinkets bought by CK as pressie (under £10 all in)
Rear seat unit off R6: was waiting to be chucked by mate, but AK 'salvaged for nowt' & with much smelly stuff going on in garridge has re-fixed & painted it
Seat for unit: donated by mate, who was chucking tatty one out, CK thinking at mo, of how to repair

all stripping, rewiring, engine rebuild, paint, done by AK.

Zaust still to come by MHP - prob later this week, but again cheap - as AK is assisting with rebuilding an engine for him in PX.
Dyno to go with zausts when fitted - cost? - CK cooking a couple of dinners

Un-necessary bit:
fairing kit - blagged deal for v cheap at Ali- Pali.

Will do a tally up shortly to the last penny, but trying to keep cheaper than Skiddylids:P
