i know u guys suggested much bigger projects but i thought i would start on a small scale. i think this will look nice after i make a mirror image for the brake reservoir and have them both powder coated.

Looks great, just have to change the font!
I can send you vectorized version of the numbers and R/CR if you want...

Beautiful execution! Typography stinks =) I'm a designer, so let me know if you need a hand. I have a few suggestions in mind as well for some stuff we could do together.

I think I'd like a big Buell instead of 1125 CR.

Other than that, very nice.

I kind of like the "Dogtag" font myself.

Gives the piece a little bit of an attitude, in my opinion.

Louisiana_xrider - I couldn't figure out why the raised letters got my attention.

I think you got it.

To be honest the amount of machine time that it takes, I don't think u guys would be willing to spend the amount that I would need to charge. Even though I have the surfaces done already I would probably need to charge around 250.00 a pair the 1mm cutter that does the detailing runs for about 2hours plus there is the detail on the opposite side that I didn't take a picture of. I supose if i was to make 6 or 7 pairs I could change my setups and it would drop the price a bit, but that wasn't my intention I just wanted to see what u guys thought

"andros" I'm always opened to machining some cool stuff ( as long as it's not something structual) I don't need anybodies life depending on something I cut unless designed by a engineer, but yeh send me an email and we can chat!
