Post by Sandblaster »

Thinking about making some of these for the kx's.
Water jet these out of some 1/4" aluminum plate...

This all started because we needed to stop wasting aluminum from our 2 piece clutch covers..
So, If you can think of something else you would like to see water jetted from 1/4" plate, let me know... I'm looking for good ideas :-)

I'm in for one if you do!! Will it work with a 15T sprocket?

Lol... It should. I did the test fit on my KX500 and it is running a 15...
But we will know for sure when I get the next batch of parts made.
Everything is always theoretical until someone slaps the manufactured part on their bike and tries it :lol:
