If it needs shocks, tyres, cables, bars, levers, ignition, forks etc - its expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rusty nuts Posted March 27, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2019 Hi cheers it's all finished ready to go so ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robido Posted March 27, 2019 Report Share Posted March 27, 2019 That sounds like a bargain at that price. Room for some upgrades like Whitton alloy hubs and still be a cheap bike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon v8 Posted March 28, 2019 Report Share Posted March 28, 2019 If you can just fill it with fuel,oil the chain and ride it this weekend,its a good price. If you make up a list of parts you need to build a bike how you want it,the price can be a bit of a shock.And you still have to build it - And shake it down.Very time consuming,rewarding if that's what you want to do. I'm part way through building a B44 engined B40WD as a trail bike.Two years in and about £4k and its still far from finished.Should be a cracking bike,but I rather wish I had just bought a running B44 Victor... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rusty nuts Posted March 29, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2019 Yes this ones ready to go it's not the wd engine which is a shame but put I some decent cams which he said make it perorm better . The victor is a great green lane machine but even these are shooting up in price I see . Good luck with the project I know what you mean start buying parts gets out of control haha ?
