Let me know what the price is for the quantity you intend to make. I make parts like this for older VF's and I've got some good suppliers for low volume machined parts. Maybe I can get a better deal. I'll even do the design work on the parts for free. That's what I do for a living, so it's no big deal.

Ok, I'll jump in, dependant, of course, on the final specs and $$$. I also like the idea of a custom made piece, assuming tolerances are maintained.

Yeah, I'm with #9. I just spend a buttload of money on my bike. I'd love to get a fork brace, but I'm a little strapped for cash at the moment.

Is this thing still happening? I noticed that the thread is a bit old. I am interested in getting one for my bike, 2004 Superhawk.

Thanks,
Mike

I think you should start backwards. The group that's been hanging here has shown it can get it done. Is the product still available - do the discounts still apply - how fast can they ship 30 to 50 sets? This post is nearly two years old and a lot of Sh parts are going over the horizon into "vintage" land. I would be interested.
