I have about $120 in parts then about 6 hours in machining the tripple clamp and brake cable bracket plus powdercoating everything.

Yeah, I made the top tripple with some 6061 and used the Fast50's bar clamp that I had. Let me know if you find some stiffer springs.. Bought the seal savers from Cycle Gear in Fort Worth.
