And answer to this rebuilding ,, bikes , if , I had 20k in my hand , would  I want  1 or 2 new bikes , or ,, 10 # + bikes valued  under 2k  well went  for the madness , , I have so many , some just frame & engine projects some rare , like chaparral 80 , 1973  a fugi, engine  and 1974 Yamaha sc500 , have orig , engine , but installed 1978 yz 400 , it absutally halls  ,  ass,,,,  as I ended up with many classic Bultaco’s pursang matadors Alpina , and few Rickman  250 montesa , Rickman hodaka ,  it’s like I started a my own shop , last15 years ,,, beats owning a new bike or two that will just get old ,, and depreciate , cheers!
