About 40 Euros and 20 Euros shipping. Conversion to USD was a little over $90

Once I get the quad running as it should and put together, I will tally up what I got into it. Pretty sure registering this will hit around $150

Yes, considering that parts yahoo place has one advertised for $140. And he probably doesn't even have one in stock.

Just some info when I asked him (parts yahoo) to verify a roller bearing was in stock. He then said it was in stock and when I went to order, the webpage then showed the bearing at a 400% increase in price. Sorry, but that is unacceptable. Moved on.

Reassembled my shocks/springs. Used a couple ratchet straps to compress the springs on the fronts. Touched up the paint where it peeled off due to the straps.

Received my carburetor from Italy. Ordered on Jan 14th and Received on Feb 9th. Bolted it up and she starts and idles like new. I got a slight hesitation and read that on the CV carbs, this can be remedied by moving the pin adjustment up (richer). Gonna try that this week and see how it goes. Hopefully I have direct access to the cover without removing the carb, which is a pain.

Need to buy a longer accelerator cable as the Rental Bars are now taller than stock, cable is now too short. Hence when I would turn the bars left, it would stretch the cable and accelerate.
