Got this today

I am on loadsa forums and one day somebody said they liked a very nice Rizoma chainguard;

Was a bit pricey we thought, so I said I would have a go at making one. I haven't even got a milling machine, so it was a tall order. Anyway, not long after a splendid chap joined the forum and said he was a team leader in a CNC machine shop. This got the old brain cells sparking, so a few weeks later and after several pms and text messages and 2 weeks waiting at the anodisers. This arrived on my doorstep, one of 16, all sold!!!

as expected, I have to fit another M6 Rivnut to the swingarm brace, but you get the idea!

 

very nice m8 , looks the business , bet u well pleased with that

 

I am mate, it weighs nothing and beautifully detailed. Wish I had about £15,000 for my own CNC machine. I'd be churning em out. Best of all, coz it was my idea to make em and we had a lot of phonecalls and text messages, it was FREE. About £100 for the Rizoma one!!!

 

its a shame u can not get a small quantity made up some where, have your own initials or logo put on , they would sell like hot cakes on ebay, that is a nice bit of kit, if rizoma is the only making them, ime sure u could differ slighly, and put your own stamp on it

 

It's not Rizoma mate! My mate looked at the pictures and designed his own, wrote the programme and made 16 on his CNC machine. Sadly the cost of paying for a programme and getting someone else to make a few wouldn't be cost effective. When I get a manual miller, I will be making one offs and short runs.

 

Looks really good dude!

 

Yeah , the guy that made it has done some fantastic stuff. Hopefully one day I will have a manual machine for making one offs.

 

So it finally arrived... and it's not even xmas! Good work - looks great.

 

Very Nice

 

looks great alan
