You dont want hero blobs on Trev when they are already lowered mate, The Buell position is just about where the original hero blob was .. If you have done the spacer mod tho that returns the hieght more or less back to normal..

they have to be powder coated all at the same time Trev else the price shoots up if they are done individual.. as you can see in the pics we have been messing with some paint and in our opinion the black does look the best in the flesh...The powder coat will remove all the sharp lines as well

see what others think first tho.. R#?

Not a problem.

I'd already guessed they'd all need to be the same. Once again, not a problem. Just let me know when you'd need the cash...

Once again, many thanks for this.

Ditto that. :yo:
No problem fella's, I quite enjoy the messing and developing part of things especially when it comes off lol.. Mainly doing these for people who are not so mechanically minded ( no offence to anyone lol) and because they are plug and play which the Buells are not.. will be available to everyone eventually through my mate.. The cheques btw will be made out to him, not me as he is in the trade and has the contacts for the laser cutting etc.. etc and has put most of the money up front.

didnt really want to make any more than the five sets initially untill you guys have had them and see how you like /rate them, but Nige says that he will make them available for every one if the feedback is good..

so my little guinea pigs :) if you email me your postal addy to this address, I will get back to you with the details.. Didnt really want to take any money off anyone until I put some pictures up of the final finished items but they will be at least as good as the ones already pictured and I have tried and tested them myself..

Send me your full postal address and state that you want lowered front or lowered rears.. cheers guys

E- mail replys sent to everyone who has e-mailed me .. 5 in all,

I think thats everyone.. if Ive missed you shout up please :)

If anyone else wants some shout up and if we get enough Nige will do another batch..

development is still ongoing so they mite vary slightly to the pics but all the lowered ones will be exactly the same spec as the Buells give, with the added option of another position if required..

Thanks Dave

The footpegs arrived this morning at 10.30 and by 10.45 they were on the bike! and here's the result. I'll be wrapping p and testing them this afternoon.
Thanks Dave for the time and work you've put in.
