   I think it is to cheap!!! That is a lot of work, I bet the builder will ask for more $$ before you pick up the bike.   Remember, you will have to change the oil 50 miles after the bike starts, and them again in 1000 miles. At which point you can switch back to synthetic. That will cost about $120.00  Did he work that in to the price?  Just sounds to cheap to me. Cheers.

The math does not add up unless the labor is free

SCHWEEEET!,,,good to hear it sounds like an awesome deal.

He has been building motors for years...he doesn't do anything else but build motors....no tires, no transmissions...just engines...mostly race engines.

He worked at Klein Racing as an engine builder,...he kinda knows his stuff...

He built this engine...1:36
