That sounds pretty fair. Chrome forks are around $1,300.00 and bars, braided steel lines, usually another $1,000.00.

Have your switch housings, master cylinder \\;and levers swapped for chrome at the same time.

I would also factor in how long you plan to keep the bike, and how much is it worth. \\; If you sell, don't count on recovering any of that money. \\; Nice improvement, but costly.

I would GLADLY do it for $1500. Mine took a lot of work and time, but I would never pay somebody more than $500 (labor) \\;to do it for me. A service manual only costs $60!

That is way more than I would spend. My bars were $160 and cables were $250 and I did the work myself. As for the forks, you can buy chrome lowers for under $300.
