if you can do your own work then that will save a lot of $$, I earlier this bought my 91 900SS, I paid $ 1550.00 for it (yea I got a deal) it had been sitting for 18 years. I am a dealer so I got my new parts a bit cheaper then you can. I did a full major service with belts, rebuilt the carbs w/ Factory Pro jet kit,, new tyres, cleaned & coated the tank, new fuel pump lines & filter, new speedo, new left combo switch (it was broken), new tail light lens (it was cracked), new stainless brake & clutch lines,--Then I bought a few things I wanted to do-most nice used-carbon tech high slip on's, mounts for the pipes, frame brace, c/f front & rear fenders, solo seat pan w/ corbin saddle,original style fairing support, --Now the bike runs and rides perfectly. I am now into it for $ 3200.00 so I think I did ok. only other things I am thinking about doing are race tech fork springs & maybe an Ohlins rear shock but only if I find a deal on the shock. So it can be done without breaking the bank as long as you can wait to find a deal on any used bits you need.--Now if I had not done the the extra things that I just wanted to do (but were not needed) I would have been into this bike for around $ 2300.00.
