Carbon fibre/fabricated parts
Anyone after any particular bit in carbon, fibreglass or fabricated aluminium etc. Post on here what your interested in and i will see where i can go with it. I soon will have my facilities back and be able to start doing this again. So tell me what your looking for and i'll see what i can do with your sugestions.
One thing i have started doing is reproducing the long centre race exhaust but thats a long termer at the minute.

Re: Carbon fibre/fabricated parts
Is this just for gsxr's or are
you open to any 400?
What sort of price would you charge, would it depend on size
etc?
What sort of turn around would you give?

Re: Carbon fibre/fabricated parts
as it stands at the minute the gsxr (gk76a) is the one i have drawings designs and templates patterns and cnc files for. also 6 gsxr's to use for fitting and testing. As far as other bikes are concerned i have two nc29's. so you could say space is at a premium. As far as others go at the moment it will take some time before i can invest in sorting other bits out. Its taken 5 years so far to establish what will work well for the gsxr. Is it something specific you are looking for? as far as carbon is concerned its mainly small items such as heel plates etc. Lead time depends on wether i have already got bits made or it being to order aswell. custom bits will take slightly longer and can be tailored to your requirements also. If you looking for something specific give me a pm and let me know what you are after. As far as the gk76a is concerned post what you'd like to see in this post and we can sort out whats going to be the most beneficial for people. Any profit made from these items will only cover costs of making (ie electricity and materials) and a donation to the forum.

Re: Carbon fibre/fabricated parts
No I'm not really looking for anything atm, I just wanted to know what sort of operation you were running.
It sounds like you've put the work and effort in.
Keep us posted if you start expanding onto other 400's,
I have an nc30 and I know there is a member on here that does carbon bits, but there's no harm in more
Cheers for the info

Re: Carbon fibre/fabricated parts
tbh honest ben its just a hobby and the love of 400's. I've had a passion for the cradle frame gsxr's since a kid but its fun for me and keeps me occupied. I'm an electromechanical engineer originally with an aero background so its just for fun and benefits everyone
