I don't dought that it would cost that much to build one piece by piece. Isn't it cheaper to buy keg then it is to buy a 6 pack? And then the banshee guys don't realize that that twin was still made well after the R. And in more numbers. So naturally the Manufacture will have a stronger and cheaper supply on hand. Banshee guys are so silly.

A lil problem  with that  parts sheet is whole assembly's an the parts  to rebuild  them like the brake calipers  for instance.  So the price  can be brought  down some  lol.

The point the guy was trying to make still applies, I believe. Just like the vehicles you buy and drive from the dealership every day. They make more off of parts and labor then they ever do off of selling you the car.
