how bad is this damage and how time/money to fix?
the piston was smashed on removal and also needs the kick start cog. The back brake needs reconecting and it also needs a new battery.The exhaust system is pretty rusty aswell?

The engine needs a rebore and a new piston - £60. The kickstart quadrant, £30 plus depending on which bit. Back brake connection - simple with a wingnut on the end of the brake rod unless its missing. A battery? £25. Exhaust system? A fortune...just paint it unless its absolutely knackered. No labour charges included!
