    Looking insane, I love the look of Cycra stadium style plates . The zip ties will wear away the fork anodizing very quickly. Maybe throw some 3M clear guard behind the zip ties before you ride it .

    This video series was awesome and the bike is badass! I started my 01 build 2 years ago, budget was smoked weeks in, just patiently waiting on a pipe from P.C. and it's done
    I'd say you are between $8500/$9500 just based on some of my big ticket items.
    Motor -$1200
    Wheels- $1000
    Lectron- $500
    Plastics& graphics- $450
    Galfer brake kit & lines-$500
    Rebuild kits shock, brakes & bearings- $600
    Renthal- $300
    Arc levers - $250
    I haven't added up what was spent on OE parts but im sure it's up there.
    Also ordered some trick billet parts from the UK

    • @GregHitchko
      @GregHitchko  5 місяців тому

    Hey Greg, looks like you've got about 8 to 10 grand into that KX in parts alone. I don't know what you paid for the bike, so add that too.
    My 99 KX250 is pretty decent, but it certainly shows it's age if you look closer. Still rips though...
    I honestly wouldn't mind to have some of the stock parts you took off, but shipping would likely be prohibitively expensive to my side of the globe.
    Anyway, awesome build, and very detailed walkthrough. Thanks for that, definitely will come in handy when I give mine a bit of TLC.
    Peace bro.

    I recon there’s got to be at least 20k in that build maybe a little more tbh some of the era stuff on the bike is near on impossible to obtain with all parts being used up over the years so it’s cost is a premium to obtain it. Greg imagine you were paying your self minimum wage for all the research time, looking for parts plus the assembly/spanner time if you added that to the cost of the build the price of the build would get crazy

    • @GregHitchko
      @GregHitchko  4 місяці тому +1
