I started working on this a while back but finally got some time to get it on the CNC....

here is what I have so far.....











Ditching my homemade force setup. I prefer the ham can look better and miss my prospect hill setup...(but not the bruised knee...) so i offset this one forward.
Going to get it anodized black to match the rest of my bike.

being a machinist is great... just sucks im not one, lol... i know just enough to be dangerous.

I have my own powder coating setup and powdercoated everything on my bike... but I just love black anodizing on machined billet, allowing you to see the machine marks. I was debating about anodizing it, and then re-machining all the recesses (lines, lettering, emblem) so they stand out... we will see.

Thanks guys- I just test fit it and its going to look awesome. Going to start working on a billet throttle body mount next.

I can figure out what it would cost to make a few and let you guys know. Also working on making a few of the frame clamps for penske shock reservoirs

Nice. Like the offset too.

What are your plans for a sock to keep the rain water out? My '99 has the Forcewinder with the sock.

A little dark paint- either nuke blue or black would really make that pop out nicely.
Looks really nice raw too!

Yes, same K&N E-3341. I used to have the same prospect hill as you, but ended up selling it and going the force route. After seeing your post a while back of yours, it pushed me to get working on this.

Ill put some numbers together and see what i could make these for and let you know.
