Apparently, your thumb is fine. I smashed my throttle hand between a 1500# welding trailer and a concrete wall and am still riding. Buck up ya fruitcake!  [cheeky]

I worked for an injection molder my senior year of high school (working 6pm to 6am 3 days a week and going to school full time might not have been my best decision ever...) and saw lots of those tapered ports in molds but we had a machine shop in house that made all of them.

Ive thought about lc8 air boxes and light flywheels.

What else is there?

Where to being...

There's NO competition for 690 Enduro/SMC shift levers - Hammer head has nice designs, but nothing for stuff bigger than the 530s. No one makes anything in the after market. Various protector gizmos... Sliders.. all manner of toys.
-Throttle's on the right, so are the brakes.  Good luck.

What's so cool about the hammer head shifters?

I might have need for some bracket wizardry to adapt the small 2 piston caliper I have to my forks so I can swap back and forth from my 17" to 21" front rim (the big 4 piston doesn't clear the spokes on a 21" )

I could use a top handlebar clamp for the Multi that incorporates a GPS mount...  ;D

More the tip than the lever. They just offer different tips so you can adjust the length of the lever.  OF course the levers are bling billet.

Actually, their rotating brake lever tips are the smarter part. Curently for the 690 Enduro/SMC there is no aftermarket shift lever. There's two aftermarket brake that fit stop tips.

I'm probably going to have to eat $2000 worth of rework because my heat treater didn't do their job.

I can't wait until Marquez gets on his level and makes Jorge trip on his tampon string.

Sure I could back charge them, but they won't pay it.
