And has access to CNC machines so cost for him is materials and his time. That's why he can send them to US folks at under $20.
My shop is now a polaris dealer so I'll check my costs on the parts in the morning.
When I looked at offering them from modded polaris parts last year, I would have had to have asked way to much after parts cost and my time plus shipping.
Well take off, eh.

Me again. 
I can get these at a reasonable price. If I can get at least 10 sets(20 pieces), I can have these shipped to your door for 30$. If we rise to 25 sets, then 25$ will be the price.
Made in brass, and, a perfect replica...just like my thumb screws.
So, to get the ball roll'n, 2 sets are already there.

The rubber 90 degree casing leading to the nylon nut is another area of weakness on these assemblies. I have a second choke cable set that came with spare carbs, vintage unknown. When I flexed one of the rubber sections on this one it cracked easily - I am guessing due to age, ozone, or UV deterioration. Thinking about mending it with sealer type shrink tubing.

Ok my good gents, if things go as planned, I should be good to have these some time next week. At least, I hope. Getting the right CNC to do the job is what may slow down the project.
If moderators have no objection, check for a new thread with pics when they are ready. Then you can storm my PM box with your needs, and I'll have you all hooked on brass.
