the motor mounts arent too big of a deal to make,the battery box is way too complicated for me though!;)

Still recovering,some days are better than others.

their version would be a pain in the ass to manufacter in any kind of numbers without some fancy equipment.i can do one off custom stuff but im not that ambitious to do mass production!:laugh:another thing ya have to take into account is stainless steel is pretty brittle compared to regular steel and stress cracks pretty easily when made with thinner gauge material.all those sharp angles are future little stress cracks waiting to happen especially bouncing around on a bike with the weight of a battery in there.

All that stuff is available, but seriously expensive.

When you are looking at the prices in Yen, a very rough idea of price would be to drop the last 2 numbers. The current exchange rate is around 90 Yen to the dollar, so 10,000 yen is around $110.00

The motor mounts are around $110.00
The Axles around $170.00
The battery box - lots... and lots of $$$'s around $550.00 for the complete battery box with airbox stay and other parts..
