LMAO!
I got the grab direct from PRM. One for mine and one for my buddies 250r for Christmas and if I recall it was like $115 to my door for both. The only thing I don't like is the amount of extra thread on the U-bolts. I will probably Dremel the excess off when I get everything together.:D

Ballpark including little stock replacement parts here and there. :confused: Probably around $3800. I haven't added it all up yet, and I don't know that I want too.:D
That thing is gonna look very sharp ;) . Good luck putting it all back together man!
BTW, Who powdercoated your frame............... Pappy :D ?

Actually I did it myself.:D I'll post a couple of close ups that I got for Pappy later. I had a unique opportunity to pay for the PC itself only, the catch was I had to do the work myself at the guy's shop. Pappy gave me a couple of pointers I think it came out pretty good.
Thanks.:D

How come your needle bearings were a pain? What you gotta do is lube the inside of the swingarm with anti-sieze before installing the bearings. So they go in easy and come out easy.

Here is one. The specs are just towel lint and dust. I am very happy with how it turned out.
