Could someone with machining skills make two of these from steel:

I need them for a pin spanner to hold the starter clutch on my Bandit.
Obviously, I'd pay for your time, materials and postage.
PM me if you're interested.
I'd do it, but I dont think you'd want to pay freight from Australia...
Can I make a sugestion? .. I will anyhow... :)
machine from a 10mm capscrew, but leave the head on the scew so that its easy to fit and remove. It'll also gove a bit of support for the pin..

LOL, I already have the cap head bolts!! I just don't have a metal lathe.

How accurate do they need to be?
Do you have a bench grinder?

Reasonably accurate -- I don't wanna f-up my starter clutch.
It's be worth $40 or so to have nice looking ones, but I might give the bench grinder idea a shot.

There's a fair spread between lathe accurate...
and make the beast with two backsing up your starter clutch.
Just sayin' ;D
Obtain a 2" long bolt - chuck up the threaded end in a hand drill - or better yet a drill press if available - apply a file to the section you want to cut down - use a hack saw to cut off what you don't want - not precision work but closer than a bench grinder though not as fast.
PM some dude, he recently did some machine work for me for a fork swap.
I have an update that'll bring this thread to a happy conclusion. [moto]
I got a PM, and then several of these appeared in the mail:
