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..

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:
