     G'day, so my bike is finally in getting the heartland 250 kit fitted along with some Burleigh roller bars 23 inch front, tank stretch and a custom paint job and some other stuff. My question is..... What are the standard parts worth to sell ? The shop fitting it for me has told me to come up with a price and he might take them or be able to sell them for me.

    What type of shocky system did you use there Beno ... have you gone with a Air shock set up ...

    Now that you have done such a great job , How much did you say you were going to sell it to me for , Lol .

     It has a shotgun shock in the rear. $1250 delivered from the states and he writes the price down to get it through customs.

    Yeah I have read some brilliant things about the ShotGun Shock ... will go that way my self down the line .

    Now you don't have to answer this and proberbly wont but what type of ball park figure has all this work set you back ... I ask as I am wanting to do some mods to my beast but want to keep the whole project under $30,000.00 ... not after a show winner or anything like that , just my own piece of happiness .

    Got my 2008 FXSTC for $22,000 ... 1,200 Km`s on her ... have changed bars , Twice , Lol ... 3 different seats ... new pipes and aircleaner and cover ... detachable back rest for obligortory rides with the Missus ... new 6 piston PM Caliper and 13" Rotor on the way ... and various other little goodies and of course a bit of Bling ... so far sitting around the $24,500.00 mark .

    Add in the Shocks at a latter date and soon some Fat Spoke Wheels and I am starting to creep up there , Lol ... as asked above though is $30,000.00 to unrealistic or should be able to manage it no worries ... some of my questions seem to answer themselves but am allways courious as to others experiences .

     Paint was $4700. Labour putitng it all together was $6900. Wheels were $2500. Heartland 250 kit $5300. Neck rake was $1200. Tank stretch im not sure on the price.  The rest is just bits and pieces, chrome fork lowers, braided lines, mirros etc. 

    It gives a ball park figure of what to expect anyway...

    Edit... the neck rake, braided lines, fork lowers and bars were included in the $6900 labour cost. There was a lot more work than just bolting on the parts.

    Thanks Man ... there`s no doubt about it , a person can sure spend some dough on their pride and joy but in your case it is money well spent ... if you were ever to put it in a show I reckon it will be a winner for sure ... Top Marks .

     

    With the pipes when I bought it ... but different bars ... seat .


    How I got her originally ... you can see why I changed the original seat , bloody comfortable but not the best look , Lol .


    The other side that shows a better angle of seat and rear guard protector .


    Got to get some more recent pics with new pipes and Air filter / cover ... Anyhow thanks for the replys and Congrats on your build , great job ... don't forget to let us know what you think of the 23" front wheel for handling ... may go that size myself but not sure if I  would need to make some rake adjustments ... have fun riding her and don't get to paranoid when everyone is looking at you all the time , Lol .
