$500 over the cost of a Complete (which is $1,000)
$300-$400 bike build labor
$100 tax
= $1,900 - $2,000

Actually it isn't that high - before labor/taxes the cost is $1,400 ($320 above the cost of the complete LHT with a MRSP of ~$1,080) with labor and taxes the final cost = $1,640 (still less than the Fargo before taxes - though not by much).

I've a friend looking at the quote to see if it is actually worth the cost - I am not doing ANYTHING before March 18th... Self-enforced waiting period is a good thing - especially when I really want something A few of the upgrades in this custom build they are giving to me at a deep discount and wouldn't be available later...so they are worth considering. I appreciate the advice for sure. Of course some of the parts were not changed.
