Figured I would start a fresh thread to announce that I've followed your lead, talked my printer into some flexibility and now have four gauge faceplates available for the first limited run of THE BLACK SERIES including a KMH! Take a look at http://www.pdgmoto.com for more detail and if you missed it, the install tutorial is complete as well. The ship date for all of these is still end of May but might slip by a day or two due to the additional designs. I'll post up any new info I hear as production continues. This is the final set of faceplates for this round, no alterations are possible at this point. If you wish to contact me concerning a custom one-off, I now have pricing info for those as well. |

Those look AWESOME! This is on the short list. Unfortunately, Skully and the folks at Performance Engineering have all my money right now. ProTapers are on the way (thanks for your help Clinton)! I really like your website as well. It looks very clean. I am so excited about the number of high quality home grown product sponsors here on BadWeb. DHM PDGMoto Special OPS Performance Engineering Drummer (I'm sure I'm forgetting others) Thanks also to our perennial sponsors (American Sport Bike, Trojan, etc.). This is so very exciting!!!!!!!! WAY TO GO GUYS! |

BADWEB DISCOUNT?! We are the ONLY market. Discounts would mean that they are selling their products at a loss. Keith and Clinton like us. They don't LOVE us. Look at this, every item you buy from one of the home grown product folks is a limited edition low volume run collectors item. 50 years from now, you'll be able to sell them for 10 times what you paid for them. |

10-4 ditto the f-bastard fifty five bux, for an OEM quality faceplate on the most often looked at item on your bike. Fifty five dollars. We are discussing and arguing 500- 1000 dollar exhausts that arguably do very small or no advantages over the OEM pipe yet this is a "I need a discount to buy it" item? hmmmm....OK, |

thank you, Ft_bstrd. that's exactly how i look at things. really appreciate that. LOL! Me too. We did a cost analysis a few days ago and were shocked at how little margin we have on our legacy products. To top it off, we have not raised prices in three years! Keith |

Gah!@! I can't decide if I want the clean look or the hooligan? Do I really need to know exactly how fast I am going? |

Sweet looking piece and an even sweeter looking web site. Very professional, clean, and simple web layout. I have to support sponsors of the site. You'll be seeing my order within the hour! Good call on being able to use PayPal. Congrats on getting your venture off the ground! Bo Sox |

fantastic looking web site, with great straight to the point info!! I like! are these designs good for xb9's as well? ie - their redline is a little different, no? not that big of a deal...just wondering. if you decide to offer a second KMH version, maybe..?
awesome work and congrats on the success!! |

thanks again for the new orders! you're all in queue, i hope to hear some updated info over the course of next week from my printer but ship dates are still set for the end of May. Spuds, thanks for the props on the site, thats my 'regular job', always nice to be able to bang that stuff out for myself. yes, these are meant for the 9 and 12. i kept the redline generic at 7K for both, I figured not many will need the small difference so it allows me to use them universally. regarding KMH, i hope to do more in the future across the board but i need to plan for that. the upfront investment is just too high for me right now. this all started because I wanted one myself. as for any Buell logo, i will not be producing anything that could put me in a trademark violation situation. sorry, just not my bag. wish i could but id need either very tall sums of cash or the green light from the MoCo. and thats a far-fetched wish |
