it takes a lot of time and effort (and some spare sanity) but from my experience is very rewarding.
always assume the worst and you won't be let down. don't buy oem parts if you don't absolutely have to. (they're too expensive) repair whatever you can opposed to replacing... you'll spend less / make more money in the end. most parts can be made to fit, whether its an ignition coil from a V6 car going into a 4cyl bike or a swing arm from a ducati going onto a hardley. the only reason something doesn't fit as-is is because it's still got all that spare metal on it. so if there's some expensive part that you can't find aftermarket for, don't assume the only part that will work is expensive oem stuff. be patient, don't take shortcuts.
