We finally got the forks rebuilt, got them on the bike, changed the oil, installed new exhaust studs, gaskets, new battery and WOW, what a difference. We still have a little drip coming from the drain plug, but It's nothing we can't live with. I gave him my old Kury Mirrors and got rid of those "Old 1981, Big As A Softball" mirrors, he took it up the street last night for the first time in about 4 Months, the grin on his face said it all.

All we have left to do is install the chain and sprockets.

$1,000.00 for the bike
$100.00 to replace bent forks
$120.00 to have forks rebuilt
$55.00 for new oil and dust seals
$130.00 for new chain and sprockets
$25.00 for new battery
$70.00 for misc. items (gaskets, studs, oil change, etc)

Total..........$1500

Having a Father and son project....and riding together.........PRICELESS !!!!!
