Hey man! Lurking and not posting or just busy? Glad to see you're still around
Bott Power makes some ridiculously cool stuff and I'm very glad they do it with a Buell soul. $2300+tax/ship for a single bent tube as a frame is too rich for my blood, but then again so is a new Bugatti. It doesn't mean I can't watch Creative companies filled with driven people, selling ultra expensive farkles need to exist so a simpleton like me can copy their good ideas with a cut-off wheel and JB Weld
I agree with casual_observers harsh reality above, with the caveat that building your own motorcycle "from scratch*" is priceless. IMO, if perceived 'future value' stops you from having fun, you're doing it wrong. The value IS IN the fun
*I'm also that annoying purist that thinks assembling stuff that someone else created, isn't "from scratch".
