I reached out to Al from American Sport Bike about getting some quick-release seat pins for my 1125R, and he told me that he would be willing to assemble 10 sets if I could round up some other BadWeb buyers. The cost would be $26.65 per set including shipping; each buyer would have to PM Al to pay via PayPal and exchange shipping information. I am definitely interested in one set; are there nine other people who want them? Brendan "NinjaNife" West |

Send Al a PM about shipping to NZ; he'll be the best person to ask for accurate info http://www.badweatherbikers.com/cgibin/discus/boar d-profile.cgi?action=view_profile&profile=al_light on-users Once you hear back from him post here with your final number so we know how many people we still need!

I have enough of the custom machined pins to make 10 kits. I think that the interest expressed above reaches the 10 kits, assuming shipping to NZ. I'll have to look into that, I haven't been doing any international shipping for some time now. I'm sure it'd be through USPS, I'll have to figure out the cost to ship the 5 kits. Stay tuned, I'll pm you the shipping costs AJ once I have them. Al |

I've been searching for these...found the catch can, but never the seat pins. I'll take (2). Al - PM sent. |

If we're rationing, I'll take (1)....don't want to be greedy, only have a need for (1) bike now, but not sure to see them again as I've been looking for over a year. |

I only have 20 pins left. I MIGHT be able to get some more from the manufacturer, but I don't know that, it's been years since I spoke to them. I'll post up here if I can build more, otherwise, it's just the first 10 spoken for above. |

I spoke to the shop, he's digging around to see if he still has some of the pins. He thinks he might. Stay tuned. |

For those that are seeing this and don't know what they are, here is the picture. Two pins, with lanyards and clips, replace the stock M6 screws, which will crossthread the rivnut in the subframe if you just look at it crosseyed.
Note that the Firebolt kits use a 1/4-20 custom pin, not an M6 custom pin that the 1125's use. They look otherwise identical but are not interchangeable. AJ, Shipping 5 kits via international flat rate envelope is $35. The guy that made the custom pins has a bunch that he saved from the last build. I used to buy them hundreds at a time every year or so, so he built some extra the last time I ordered them. He'll sell as many as I want, but they'll cost me double what I paid when I was buying a lot of them. I guessed and told him that I might need about 20 more of them. I don't plan on doing this again, so he'll probably be stuck with the rest. In addition to the pins, I have to get the nuts and lanyards, and possible clips, and they've gone up a trivial amount since the last purchase. I'll eat a little bit of the price rise, so lets just call it $22.00 per kit, with up to 3 kits shipped to anywhere in the US via priority mail for $6.00 (which let's me do click-n-ship since we aren't set up to ship stuff any more). So the first thing is for me to get a final count so I can get the parts to build them up. If you're in the US and are good for $22 per kit + $6.00 shipping, then reply to the thread by appending your name to the running list, like below. If I've added you incorrectly, reply and correct the list. The list as it is at the end of Friday, 11/8/17, will be drive the quantity that I order for pins, lanyards, nuts, clips, etc. Name / Quantity 1)Ninjanife / 1 2)Bullettooth023 / 2 3)Robertl / 1 4)Chazaag / 1 5)Skipbarberman / 2 6)Allanflstfi / 1 7)AJTurbo / 5 Total 13 |

Hello All, Is it to late to get in on this? I have a 2009 1125cr. If I can get in I’d love to. Please let me know what I should do. Thanks |

Wait so the Firebolt pair won’t fit it’s 1125? I’ve got an XB pair I’d trade for an 1125 pair |

This is getting more complicated, but I can still make it work. While I don't have any 1/4-20 pins here, the shop guy said he had some of those left over too, and I do have a fair amount of the thin 1/4-20 jam nuts still. The lanyards and pins are the same. So, let's do this. Specify the type as well, I'll keep track of the final count. Please confirm the following is correct Name / Type/ Quantity 1)Ninjanife / M6/ 1 2)Bullettooth023 / M6/2 3)Robertl / M6/ 1 4)Chazaag / M6/1 5)Skipbarberman / 1/4-20 /2 6)Allanflstfi / M6/1 7)AJTurbo / M6/5 8)Buellrobot / M6/1 9)Bubba / M6/ 1 10)Nytro_Gambler / M6 / 1 |
