whats a 50 cost to build?

just trying to get a rough estimate of what im getting myself into, i traded my 110 for some parts for my quad, and decided to switch it up and build a 50. nothing too crazy....Just like stock frame/forks/swinger with stiffer springs up front and maybe a used rear shock. and if its possible id like to get a used honda engine and put an 88 kit in it. How much do you think it will cost to build it from all parts off here, and other sites, i know the stock frames/forks/swingers go pretty cheap, thanks guys

frame-100
complete front end-150
rear end (shock wheel Swingarm) 200
motor-400
Misc (seat plastics bolts)- 100

So about 900 you sould have a decent bike.

Re: whats a 50 cost to build?

ill say about 3000$ to have a decent fiddy. you might be wondering why:

after getting your stocker together for 600$ you will possibly get addicted and like so many other victims, throw hundreds into the bike on an almost daily basis at least thats my case
