You'll need to organize them through a sponsor, but sure. Al has done the occasional group buy I think.

What you looking to do?

Yes they have set them up, usually, but not always thru one of the sponsors.

basically, there is a guy on buellxb that makes axle sliders for XBs and sells them on the buellxb site. He had a couple people looking for tuber sliders and i sent him an axle for mock-up. He had designed a rear slider that covers the axle nuts and makes for a nice clean looking swingarm. He is working out pricing now but was wondering how many people would be interested.

I don't see any problem with that, but he would need to market those through one of the sponsors. Al in the past has done group buys like this. I would contact him.

I removed the link until there is a group buy deal set up through a sponsor. Then we will promote it all you want through that sponsor.

Thanks.

Looks like Al is going to be out until later in the month per his website.

I'd check with him and get something set up.

I spoke with the guy making these and he is trying to get ahold of Al. I know he called and left a message but not sure if he heard back yet. He may have by now.

Ok guys- I talked to Andrew today. He has some pricing but is waiting to talk to Al. I think he said that he sent a sample to Al.
He is sending me a test part this week for me to check out. Ill post pics and let you all know.

thanks

Unless/until a sponsor steps up for this, it probably ought to go quiet. We just can't do free advertising, which is what this amounts to, let alone for those who don't even participate on this forum.

Sounds like a nice product. I personally don't see the functionality. My Cyclone's rear axle and nut act as slider itself. I guess it would be about looks? I'm a minimalist; no extra mass if it's not serving a vital function. Definitely don't want any extra stuff that needs polishing.

Blake, been treading the line, but I've allowed it to continue to move along as long as it didn't become "advertising" and was moving toward an arrangement with Al.
