Clear Rear Lens - Numbers Please.

#1 Post by GregD-UK » Mon Apr 02, 2007 12:14 pm

Hi all + More importantly Gio :smt001

I have trauled the length and bredth of this fair land and found a rapid prototyping company who can make a clear lens for our beloved falco. Going to show them my bike this afternoon,

To get a cost, need numbers to split the cost equally, that is, if you can't wait till October till when Gio will be able to do it.

Let me know by the end of the week please :smt003 Roughly the price will be £30 to £35 per unit. Need 25 orders to make the cost stay at £30 to £35. Also can be done in 2/3 weeks from now. Most importantly, I need cash/money when u place order, I don't want to make an order for 25 then find out I have to foot the bill :smt018

OK have 20 provisional orders, will contact the company and ask if they can do it smoked instead of clear, or both, so the choice is yours. Will ask them in the morning. Check this post pm manana for details. Also confirm final price with them now I have 20 orders.

Then just add on postage + packing to wherever you are on this rock of ours.....

Cheers,

Warranty yeah rite!

I'll be interested, but it ultimately depends on price.

hi Greg, well I'll be the first one to stick my name down for one clear lens, are you thinking of doing smoked ones as well, cause if I had a preference that would be it

postage cost would be the biggest killer for me, but then maybe viking would be after one as well and theres probably more for way down south

If more numbers are needed I'm sure lots of guys on AF1 would be after them as well

Good job on finding someone

Then I can work out cost per lens, not including, postage to wherever you are on this rock of ours.....

Price is what its down to. but yes I'd be interested in a couple, preferably smoked ones, I think clear ones are becoming a bit common :smt005

I'll have one regardless of price if its a smoked/silver cover... :smt002
Failing that, a well priced clear-un will have to do! :smt003
I'll have one of each if its possible! :smt007
Two is the magic number... ;)

Yep, probly in too if the price is right. Thinks....... if we're all in for one of these, the red ones will be VERY exclusive - might buy up all the stocks!!!
The ride is the reason ........ the destination is just the excuse.
