    I second that! Especially at $50 a set. IMO you could create, grow and supply a nice little niche market. Give it a try and see where it goes.

    Common sense has become so uncommon that I consider it a super power.


    Present Stable includes:
    '74 GT750 Resto-mod I've owned since '79
    '83 GS1100E (The best E I've ever enjoyed, Joe Nardy's former bike)
    '82 GS1100G Resto project

          Yes I can.It would have to be a special bike to support brass accents though

                Hi,

                Wow. These are very slick. I'm impressed. I think they'd look good on my bike too. Are you taking orders yet?



                Thank you for your indulgence,

                  x2. or is that x4 or x5?
                  I'm ready to shell out some dough for a set of these. I have to buy a set anyway, and these are AWESOME!

                      Can you make a set for the 650 if I send you an old one?
                      Aluminum for me, please.

                        I was going to paint the whole thing black and polish the rim and the S, but I like this look so well I want to leave aluminum. When I drill the mounting holes, I will see how it looks and let that make the decision.
                        On a serious note, are you actually going to be taking orders for these??? If so, what sort of $$$ would we be looking at???

                        I would really love a set of these for my 77 GS750 because even though it is not original, it really suits the era and character of these bikes!

                        PLEASE let us know if you are going to make them to sell, or not....

                            Had you considered a belt buckle in brass? Wish I were near you to take a peek on how it's done. As a lad, I visited a small foundry in Kansas and watched them make small iron items in damp sand moulds. Interesting stuff.

                              I am interested in selling these. I will still do these for the $50+shipping which would be in a flat rate box.

                              Now the bad news. I will need $150 for the brass caps as they are much harder to cast and turn and they don't make brass beer cans.

                              I am willing to do other sizes but since they will need another pattern price will be comensorate. PM me if your interested.

                                Will you do some for 1100 16v? Really like the S logo in them.
