Re: Carbon Fiber group buy?

cbrbear, I e-mailed the address you gave but there is no PayPal set up or information on buying. Exactly how do we purchase what we want? Thanks

Re: Carbon Fiber group buy?

Group buy is closed and only 2 emails which means its pretty much not worth having a group buy. For the two that emailed me feel free to contact Mr Yu his website is spiralspinner and email is info@spiralspinner.com he can help you with your order.

Re: Carbon Fiber group buy?

I know he has some awesome stuff for the XX in there from antlion or whatever. I just received a package from him yesterday with my active quick throttle, new right hand controls, and chain adjusters, along with my new windscreen from majical racing that is carbon/clear!!! He is very good with communication and shipping prices. When you email him. His name is Yu Hirayama or something like that and just let him know how you got in contact with him and are looking to purchase parts and he should hook you up!! Keep in mind it could take a few weeks to get the parts because they are made once ordered not sitting on the shelf waiting.

Re: Carbon Fiber group buy?

I've rear sets that are beautiful, and the billet gas "do da" in the pic you posted. The Can. $ is relatively strong to the Yen so the issue is postage. I emailed him and asked about a cf dash. He has some serious bling for a Bird. Do we have any members from Japan?? Not Yanks living there but Japanese?
I added that web site to my favorites. Go look at the rear sets. If I wasn't a ludite I'd attach the images I'm talking about.

Re: Carbon Fiber group buy?

its easy to put a few hundred here few hundred there when you figure it took me over a year to complete it and the big check from the insurance company helped. My bike was vandalized and insurance paid out nicely and didnt total the bike!!!

Re: Carbon Fiber group buy?

cbrbear,

Could you tell me, your steering damper, is that a 'bird fitment?

Secondly, as you're evidently the authority on Japanese kit, do you know of anyone still manufacturing the TSR-type caliper brackets?

Many thanks!

Wreckless.

Wreckless.

The damper is a standard scott/ohlins radial style damper, and the mounting bracket is made by BRG BRG Motorcycle Racing Dyno Services and requires drilling into the frame and the upper triple clamp.

As far as the TSR type caliper brackets I have no idea but I can ask if anyone in Japan would know if they are still made and how/where to get them from.

Thanks, that'd be very helpful! I suspect I might have to get some made, but I want to exhaust all possibilities first.
