Air box looks really nice as well would you make longer ones maybe not as tall?

Nice work from both of you guys. I've never seen anybody work with carbon fiber before. Someday can you make a video of ya building something little so we can see the process of how it's done? I'm imagining in my head that it's probably pretty close to working with fiberglass but heck I don't know.

A nice, thicker kickstarter would be nice. With a high compression head and fresh top end, the stock kickstarter beats my foot to death even though riding boots.

or a map holder, sorta like a clip on clip board. when you go to hatfield you need a map to know where you are.
and then you always find your self stopping to look at map.

How about billet & carbon fiber brake stay arms, caliper brackets & front brake disk shields?

Here's one that I'm sure ALL the zilla guys would love... A new cushion lever with revised / improved geometry?

I'd be up for a carbon fiber brake stabilizer bar thing and a rear brake mount that will take a YFZ450 rear caliper!

How about a copy of the G Craft Rear brake reservoir.

Luckily for me I managed to pick up 2 last year on a business trip to Japan

Now that's a cool piece.
I have been going to get a Yz master and make a new mount to run it for a similar setup, I had forgot about it until I noticed my res has crack in it.

how strong is carbon fiber?  there is alot of stress on the rear brake link.  if its not strong enough it will bend or break.  my first aluminum links were too thin and would bend.  one on my 500 started to bend thats why i make thicker links now.  going more for strength more than looks.

For $79.95, is it possible somebody on here could manufacture them for the same price or less, while improving the appearance?

The pic I posted is one I found on the web

I have one bolted up to both my 250 and 500

There are a few different types but I bought the one that tilts forward so that it is vertical when bolted on the bike

Here's a pic of what I bought including the seals
