that's the only one i confirmed.
also, the new evo has the passenger pegs hanging off the subframe as do the S&P that I have, so that's another stressor probably not factored into the pieces.

No, they did consider, and provide for the passenger rearsets that now hang off the subframe, but I was a little off on the price... They didn't mean "Under $1000.00 per subframe", they meant "Under $1,000 per side (each subframe is made up of a left, and a right half".

The amazing thing is that these will still be considerably cheaper than oem.

Expect more information later today/tomorrow.

Called it...

That sucks, for $1k I would have at least considered it, after all, don't go out to eat with the gf twice a month for 5 months and you're pretty much there. At $2k their market is going to be the high-end people. I'm sure they know this and have priced it relative to the cost/complexity of the manufacturing and the volume that they have an interest in selling/producing. I'm in product development too and know typically these decisions are made for a reason. sucks for us average guys though :(

I will say this, it's gonna cost a pretty penny for those who don't do a self install as well.

Ok guys!

I was able to beat the price down a bit, and retail for the pair of Carbon Fiber Subframes will be only $1699.95!!

These drop over 60% lighter than oem, and can be seen below:












They will be arriving in Mid - Late April.

That just might be a possibillity for me, but it'll be the last thing I get after I've gotten every other possible mod out of the way. They look amazing, can't wait to get to the point when i can actualy justify buying them.

Just wait until you see them installed on an actual bike (preferably in person) and boom, you've just justified your next purchase.  [beer]

$270/lb give or take.  It's a hefty tag, but damn they're gorgeous
