racer Posted February 11, 2008 Report Posted February 11, 2008 I have access to three vert mills with lots of tooling, a South Bend toolroom lathe, and two larger hendey engine lathes. Got a surface grinder, but that's not setup for alum, plus band saws and other support type machines. How does 6061 bar sound for you? Quote
Skidmark Posted February 17, 2008 Report Posted February 17, 2008 I would check out baldwin motorsports and janssen racing. They make awesome looking hubs. Im not sure if they make them for the banshee though. Quote

Since you have access to all manual machines, I will make sure I take it easy on the compound curves when I design the caps. :biggrin: Quote

Skidmark Posted February 17, 2008 Report Posted February 17, 2008 yeah, I didnt think so. The new style Baldwin ones look kinda ugly anyways. But I think the rear janssen/hardkor looks the best. The finish on those things looks awesome. I got a set on my YFZ and love them. Quote

I am going to buy a set of Harkor hubs and get some different caps made. :thumbsup: Quote
Skidmark Posted February 17, 2008 Report Posted February 17, 2008 the only thing that sucks is if you have an adjustable axle and dont have it as wide as it can go, you cant put the caps on. Quote
