I also asked about making some aluminum pegs (hinges "preflipped". He said he'll do that once I gets these plates done. I might get another prototype next week.

Now that I got a couple minutes...Gawd these suckers were light. The original steel ones were a little more a couple pounds each. These felt like less than a pound each (maybe even a half pound).

Well, I took delivery of a second prototype on Saturday. A couple more minor changes. However, I'm getting 13 black sets and 7 silver sets in about a week to a week & a half. wavex, be ready to test. ;) I'm also working getting the "flipped" shifter pedal fabbed up. If they're inexpensive enough, I'll roll it into the cost of the set back plates. But I'm expecting them to cost $10-$15. In any case, they would be shipped for free along with your set back plates.

I'm out. I'm probably going to end up with Rizomas if I feel the need.

The ones on your bike have become rusty. Better get them powdercoated in silver/black.

The rust is from the original steel template. The ones I'm having fabbed up are aluminum and won't ever rust.
