bought a bike...
here's what needs done to it (just took some notes, prices are mostly bike bandit prices, haven't looked for "good" prices yet)
change both fork seals, use thicker oil (because I'm a fatty) but not by much (because I'm not that fat) kit: ~$25 oil: ~$10/quart
clutch lever, bolt for clutch lever, brake lever (~$12 for levers, bolt...might be cheap..might need special)
left foot peg, or set of rear pegs (no clue what this will cost....probably big cost
some flat steel stock, and some angle stock for bending and making brackets, and a way to cut it (dremel?) ~$20
grips ~$15
choke cable ~$20
brake pads ~$50-60
tires ~$250
priority:
levers/bolt (one lever on bike already, other paid for...need bolt)
fork seals
choke cable
grips/foot peg
brake pads
tires
