I thought it was in the $550 bracket. A good value in both time and money as I understand it.
FastDoc,
Nope, if you read the fine print you realize that there is a $175 core charge on the cylinder that they send in the kit. You send your standard cylinder back to get the core charge refunded. They mention that lower down the page. He also charges a a 3% surcharge for using PayPal. That's why I stated that this is fairly pricey.

W&G,
You send in your cylinder back to them on exchange. They'll send me a freshly bored and sleeved core cylinder that was on someone elses bike. Of course, you have no idea of the history of the core but I suppose it's fine as the boring would fix any problems. Hopefully, there are no cracks in it. I may just send them mine cylinder and wait for it to be machined and sent back. That way I get my new cylinder back. That means unwanted downtime that I am trying to avoid.
