$125. In a box.
Had to send the cylinder off $150
$200 in oem and hard parts
Bunch of money in aftermarket stuff $$$
I work at a bike shop selling parts and accessories. So most aftermarket stuff was bought at cost....lol

Rebuilt the bottomend today and used some fresh hardware from wps.

Looks good, what a bargain !

Liking the polished look also, makes a change from the usual wd40 and scocthbrite finish, bit more work too.... I did the same on my 03, here's my effort.

Would love them, bit more than i want to spend at the minute though and that's without international shipping and import fee's/tax on top.... We get royally screwed over here in the UK...

Was more so talking to the OP for his project.



I'm not real sure of the international process. I have a guy down under that wants them but it may be more hassle than it's worth.
