Re: Are any of you guys machinists?
Exactly, test out the ideas and demand here, then, if it seems prudent, take it out to the rest of the world. At least with the "low google hit volume" GZ250, a google search for parts would turn up anything we put out pretty easily.
Things like a backrest bracket, trunk plate, etc, would be pretty simple, low build cost items, and would lend themselves to small volume production. No real tooling or high production costs involved.
A centerstand brings a couple of problems, though. first and foremost is liability. If it's not perfect, and fails, serious injury and damage can result. also, it would require a bit more fabrication, to a lot higher tolerances, I would think. Still, it's something I'd like to try, at least for our group.
