One should never add up such costs. It can lead to heavy drinking or logic, both of which are bad when dealing with older bikes.

I'm almost embarrassed to say that I paid $2000cdn for Sophie last year. She is (or was) complete, with everything original, but a little rough around the edges. I considered that a reasonable price to pay for a great bike which carried me 9,000+ long distance kms last summer. After the faffing arou...

Re: Replacing cylinder head cover
Good question. BTW, what happened to the cover? PO buggered up the threads for the left hand valve adjustment cover and I have been wrestling with the idea of putting in a helicoil/timesert.
