[QUOTE="timetraveller, post: 134549, member: 456"] Hi Craig, there is no problem getting a batch of these made. After all I have had over 200 of the JE steering stems made, My motivation for publishing the diagrams was to allow people to make their own and if some of those who are competent enough wish to make a few extra then I am more than happy to send larger diagrams by email if that would help. The commercial alternatives are either they are made in one offs and cost a lot or I get them made by CNC machining and those chaps like to make a minimum of ten at a time. There is also the problem of cutting the hole in the top of the UFM. I did this by using a hole saw in a pillar drill so it is not a particularly difficult job but if you wanted someone else to do it then you have to be prepared to ship your UFM. If there is someone here on the forum who is a competent machinist and prepared to make a few as a favour to fellow Vincent owners then I am more than happy to let them have any more information they might need to allow them to make a batch. All I would ask is that this is done at a reasonable cost as my aim here is to help fellow Vincent owners, not to make a profit. If there are ten people who would be potentially interested in these then please contact me on [email]enw07@btinternet.com[/email] and I will get a price for a batch. [/QUOTE]
