So, I'm not sure how many of you know this, but I'm in the job shop/contract CNC machining business. I primarily focus on military small arms components, but I've been getting more and more inclined to diversify to other industries (medical, aerospace, commercial firearms, etc) and one of those is aftermarket for bikes and possibly cars if I ever fall in love with a car again. Hard to go back to cars after having so much fun with bikes, though. Anyway, I want to take a stab at making bike aftermarket goodies, and having researched the Grom since they were announced, I think that might be a good bike to start on. Reasons being: it's new to the states, just released and starting to be delivered. cheap and accessible. just has a very "fun" and "hooligan" type attitude about it which I think is breeding grounds for people wanting to blow stupid money on a cheap bike. If you disagree, don't hold back. I want to know what you think. What I really want to know is, what kind of bike parts do YOU think would be good to make? I can make just about anything, but I want to focus on machined from billet components (that could be anodized or painted or powdercoated or bukkake-ed whatever). Fire away. Also, if you are involved with a shop that needs CNC work done, that wouldn't hurt either lol. i always have room for more work.
