I get asked at times how much it cost me to put this bike together and I really don't think of it that way at all. I think of it as a work in progress. I've learned alot of the years driving this beast. I'm going to attempt to break down the bike in it's add-ons.

So in total, I've easily spent 2600 on this bike and really, compared to many other people with bikes, I know.. I spent next to nothing.
I use this bike as a daily commuter, getting exercise and not having to waste time in a gym. I'm well ahead of the game.
I save on parking, gas, insurance, car maintenance and over all peace of mind. If I would do it all over again, I would do the exact same. No regrets!
