Thanks for the comments guys, P-hack I hope it will encourage others, I'm happy to share my experiences and offer advice to anyone contemplating a similar build. In the words of Sheepdog44 'I try to be helpful. I'm not an expert'
The total cost including the donor but excluding my time, is around five hundred dollars, most of the cost was replacing or upgrading the worn out engine and cycle parts.
The fairing was 50 bucks secondhand, lexan for the screen $20, my buddy did the welding and fabrication of the footrest hangers and fairing brackets, also modifications to the frame and exhaust for free.
Don't worry I'll take good care of him, I will need his help again.
