I've spend probably another $400-$500 in replacement parts. So I think $600 is about right. 1981 KZ550C LTD (SOLD) 1980 GS750L 1982 KZ750N1 Spectre (New Project)

Remember though, you'll still have to pour some more money into the scooter to keep is on the road and running well:laugh: Michael Alvin, Texas 1982 GPz750 1977 KZ1000A 1978 KZ1000A 1982 GPz1100 1975 Z2A

Some shafties do draw a little more power and there is a tendency for the rear of a shaftie bike to rise with power. At first it can be a little strange feeling but nothing big. It adds some weight but has little or no lube or tightening or noise. Which is nice. Sounds like a good deal to me as well.
