Bummer! I hope all goes well for you. Do you have too much to do at this time or can you still accept orders for parts? If you can I'll buy a sprocket adapter just to keep around. Good luck!!!!

I had many people that rode with me in the taxi ask what they could do to help me stay afloat (I actually spoke English LOL) I always told em send me some business...if anyone knows of a nice juicey contract for this guy would be really nice...1 at a time orders are not gonna pay the bills he said he been without a contract for over a year that is what put him outa business.

I wish you well...much like I am sure you are I am used to people liking my work this economy is really a new experience for me.

Placed my order too. I might not even put it on the bike, I may just hang it up on the wall for everyone to admire.

Oh Man, I totally agree with George. Jim please post what type of commercial orders you are needing. You have a wide audience here that would love to help. Your a very talented machinist. You have your own shop and tooling. This is just a matter hooking up with people in need of product. I hope you stay afloat.
