Yep, I am realllllllly lazy about getting a website going... I have it partially designed, but the interest in sitting in front of my PC any more than I do right now is slowing things down right now My goal is to get my 3D printing site with all the small tools/gizmos I've designed for motorcycles, photography, backpacking, etc... up and listed by sometime in October. Once I want to stay inside more. jk3d.us is going to be the domain (currently it redirects to my personal blog). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member mikerbiker Posted September 4, 2020 Premium Member Share Posted September 4, 2020 ok, 1 suggestion if possible to do: have some way to attach a keyfob/lanyard/"remove for flight" tag to it. Looking at picture of it sitting on top of fork it's just asking to fall into the netherworlds of fairing/frame/engine void. Unless you make another mold as tool to easily remove the fairings and sell that one separately! 😄 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or keep it in a tank bag. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member mikerbiker Posted September 4, 2020 Premium Member Share Posted September 4, 2020 it's when using it that it could fall. Who would ride with it sitting on the fork? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just put it in your pocket, or under your seat. I didn't put a lanyard loop in it just cause I didn't think it was needed, but I can see it falling into the chassis if you weren't careful. I posted one with the hole in it on Thingiverse for ya! Edited September 4, 2020 by Clegg78 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woohoo, dibs on partial royalties!! My lawyer's reviewing the contracts now. I get paid for the value of the added empty space, plus material cost! And I reduced its weight too.

Premium Member mikerbiker Posted September 4, 2020 Premium Member Share Posted September 4, 2020 Looks great, one last thought. To help user count clicks of adjustment, could you number the what 12 points, similar to clock? Just as an aid to visually measuring rotation. Thks, PS. Offer in different languages, incl Roman numerals, japanese,etc. Could go global! For proper Yamaha adjustment need the Japanese version. Charge a premium!
