Welcome to the forum, and that is a really neat bike. From the looks the seat, handle bars, exhaust, and front fork tubes have been changed. Also the rear looks like it might have been converted to a 16" wheel, and tire.
You would need to find a stock seat, handlebars, fork tubes (break hoses, and speedometer cable), and exhaust pipes. The exhaust will be very expensive$$$$$$$. The rest should not be bad. I have a nice set of stock tubes, and break hoses I would part with.
TOOLS
P.S. It also has lowering blocks installed on the rear shocks.

At least the intake is stock. I'd murder for a stock intake and get rid of these pod filters. And no, Tools, I don't want to buy one from you. I spent my allotment on the rebuild. That's why I said murder, and not pay lol. But if you happened to have one............

thanks for the info on it, shes a beast! I'm 5'2, but I will deal with the height of this thing, it's the bike i've been dreamin about four many years, and how much would you let those go for? Also- yea she is neat looking how she is, but the handling on those extended forks in a little awkward- wasn't done correctly by the previous owner-
Thanks!

I just noticed, you might have the early style forks. They use a different break caliper bracket then the later ones. Can you get a better picture of the sliders, and break caliper bracket, so I will know, for sure? As, for price? I would do a swap. I am wanting an extended front end, for a project I am planning.
TOOLS
P.S. Also can you get a close up of your headlight ears. I would like to see if they will still take the fork gators?
