You have $2000 in yours I have $1500 in just the purchase of my Zilla. I am replacing all chassis bearings and seals, ball joints and tie rods. Having cylinder bored bought a used Q pipe plastics are rough but I'm gonna restore them. Axle needs work needed an entire new clutch assembly minus the pressure plate. Will be getting a fresh bore and new piston. By the time I'm done the build will be total around $3500-$4000. So you're about half as much as me so I'd say you did pretty good. Any of these bikes you find used unless they were stored in a container in a conditioned space need pretty much everything replaced to be right. That is also unless you get a used bike off someone that actually takes care of it and keeps up with the proper maintanence which is practically impossible to find unless you want to spend $3500+ on just the used bike.
