Thinking of starting out and a little unsure

[ReycleBill]

$6000 is fairly rich for this bike but I'd hate to calculate what I have into mine. AND YES some it was stupid money but hind sight is 20/20

- $800 for the bike.
- $600 for engine rebuild
- $250ish Vance and Hines exhaust
- $300ish Boyer ignition
- $400 misc parts from XS store
- $50 K&N air filter
- steel, welding material, gas, misc tools for the job $$$
- stupid seat off eBay $$
- Still want to upgrade brakes and electrical, maybe shocks.

I suspect most of us have more in our bikes than we know... or care to admit to ourselves. 'Tis the nature of the beast.

should have quit at the rebuild...and rode the crap out of it.....

6 grand in an xs650? How would that even be possible?

I've already got about $4500 into my sportbike build
