Thanks guys, I'll have a look

Allen, can you elaborate? Do you mean, with using the scooter as a donor? The parts linked do add up quite quickly if getting the conversion kit. Getting more common parts for motorcycle conversions is another route... If I went all new stuff for the motorcycle, I would guesstimate around $4000... If I hack up the scooter for $1200, and get a deal on a rolling chassis (I hope around $600), I could probably be done around $2000 I think?
