he did a lot of body work on the front fairing, there were holes and cracks. im changing out the front and back turn signals also. So its looks sleaker. ill have pics posted once its competly done. imagine the naked pic with just a seat and a gas tank on it. thats how ive been getting my fix of riding. Riding around like a retard.

its a 01 750. no headlights yet. when i looped it, iit pretty much messed up everything but the trees, frame and motor. I had to replace the subframe, handlebars, controls, gaugecluster, taillight,footpeg brackets, exhaust, taillight, airbox, tank, #2 carb mixing top. and i'm still waiting on signals, headlight, fairings.

i've been hunting on ebay for the last few months. the most i paid for anything was the subframe at 25 bucks. i paid 20 for the gauge cluster, 5 for the tank, 10 for the bars, 1 bucks for the footpeg brackets, 5 for the mirrors, 9 for the tailight 5 for the air box ect. i've spent maybe 100 bucks so far. hell i've probably paid twice in shipping in what i've paid for parts

Well in that case keep ebaying it. Everying for me on ebay costs an arm and a leg for me. Granted its a 21 year old bike, but i would imagine it wouldnt cost me my first born.
