    OSSA 500 Yankee. Apart from refinements, there's not much that hasn't been done before.
    it's not a bad thing till you throw a KLR into the mix.
    those cheap ass bitches can do anything with ductape.

    Rides the YZM 500, the sound makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up.

    Fuk off. Who's going to pay 40k?

    Especially when they can build one cheaper.

    I have found him pretty reasonable and supportable of other racers.
    His prices for parts are normally under the the other far bigger dealers and he puts together bulk buys on tires at the start of the season for the motard guys.
    he carries a lot in stock as well.
    It does seem expensive, but Ruddy needs to make a living too.
    It even has a warranty

    in the Q&A
    Q Would you mind doing a price break down to show how you got to over 40k nzd? I know the 500 conversion kit goes for 8000cad I know there would be duties and shipping ect. I was looking into doing the same conversion and I’d appreciate knowledge on those hidden costs involved. Cheers
    A shoot us an email and I can send ya some info through . This one has had alot more over & above the basic conversion kit and thats where the price goes up quickly. Ya co
    would do a absolute bare minimum conversion on a ol dunga and the cost would still be more than ya budgeted. This example is a do it once, do it right project. Build one yaself, theyre an awesome engine design
