240 kit on 08 busa

[chrisrod]

So I started looking around for someone in my area that is capable of doing this 240 kit. I talked to a friend to see if he wasn't capable he gave me a number for Tose Brothers in windsor. Anyway first they said if I want to when the weather gets nice I can test drive a bike with the kit. They can modify the rear wheel, so I don't have to buy after market. This kit includes everything start to finnish except powder coting. $2,750.00 Is this a good deal or not? I know there's a lot to this kit other than just the swingarm. This is exstended 4 to 6 in. also, but they said they can build this kit, so it is really close to the stock swingarm length. I want the 4 to 6 in. ext though. Just looking for the best price in my area and someone that is going to do a good job. Thanks for the input.

If thats the 240 arm, offset sprocket, chain, 240 tire, and modified stock wheel....then yes best price I seen for it. Powder should only run another couple Hundred?

It depends on what that price includes. At ATC, they sell the black swing arm for about $950 and a chrome 240 Stock wheel for $1300 (powdercoat should be less). The price of the brakeline and chain would be $200 - $250 and shipping no more than $100. However, if $2750 includes labor, I say go for it.

 

[chrisrod]

It does include labor and I'm not sure about the offset chain (if it's needed or not) but he did say start to finish with everything to do the job.

 

[Htown Busa]

Well that is definitely a good deal. Oh, I forgot about the 240 tire, so I say pull the trigger.

Check out speed demon cycles in bloomfield. I've seen some really nice work come out of their shop.

I've hurd they do a good job. I am really shopping around I'm not working right now, but as soon as I get back to work it's mine. I can't see spending money on a new rear tire right now if I'm going with this kit in a few mounths just going to need another new tire. Thanks I will try and give Demon Cycles a ring and see if they can shoot me a price.
