[QUOTE="rmc_olderthandirt, post: 1189705, member: 68872"] If you do the top end BEFORE it seizes then the cost of the repair is a lot less. If you are a serious racer than you seriously need to keep the top end fresh. As far as the causual rider goes, everyone will give you a different answer. If your objective here is to establish how much it will cost you to operate the bike then the discussion gets a little more complicated because it will depend on how many times you crash and how hard! I have broken brake levers by simply having the bike fall over without anyone on it. I cartwheeled down a gnarly hill and destroyed a radiator, handle bars and clutch perch. I cut a little too close to a boulder and bent the rear brake pedal. A few too many somethings took their toll on the shift pedal. Laying the bike down in a turn a few too many times has torn my side plastic panels. I am about 20 good rides into a set of tires and they are getting to the point that they need to be replaced. I have been spending about $100 a month to keep 4 bikes running. Rod [/QUOTE]
