Drip, drip, drip--the tab so far
Sat at the kitchen table last night to add up the costs for parts so far. Like I said, this is a budget build, so I'm shopping for parts far and wide. OldMiniBikes has a big piece of my wallet after the Thunderhawk build, and is getting business on this one too. I've looked for parts at sellers with free shipping to keep the bill down. So here's what I've bought so far: Max Torque 3/4 clutch $24, Throttle cable $6, Clutch guard $9, HF 4" angle grinder $11, 4" wire wheels $12, Paint and primer $16, Throttle assembly $18, 2-Snapper 1" Exhaust pipes $18 (Thanks OldMiniBikes), Helicoil set with tap (GRRRRR) $18, Manco #420 replacement chain $15, Kleen Strip Aircraft Paint Remover $10, Hot Dog Muffler $5, Thunderbird fuel tank (used) $18. I think that adds up to $170.
