The only thing that is a setback is the carbs, but I found a set locally that I have to go take a look at. I also need some new steering head bearings and a chain...and she should be all set. After all is done, I am expecting the total cost for the bike to be around $5-600 and about 40 hours of work. That is just the mechanics. The body repair/painting will be extra.
