Anybody know if "morepower" is still around?

I have tried to PM him about an NC30 swing arm cover in carbon but never got any response. Is he still out there playing with carbon or has he moved onto different things? :pray:

Sorry guys been too busy doing some work to get a few of the Aprilia kits done for customers who paid my original supplier that let me down.. sad thing is he got paid by 3 customers and 2 years later it is down to me to make them their kits!!! This is why I have been learning how to do all this stuff! So Danny has the first two sets.. He is my crash test dummy with them. But I can now make some from the initial moulds which are not 100% perfect for me as my mould making skills are still very very basic and I have learned that there are other better ways to make this type of part and mould. But here are the photos of one set with one in carbon and one in carbon kevlar.. Danny likes carbon kevlar so I made a set for him...

If I can get the moulds refined a little and re-made I would expect the parts to have this level of clarity..
Image
As it is they are not far off but there are a few marks in the mould or ripples on the surface. But if someoene wants a set for protection and is happy with the ones I have... I can make a few sets now...

Here is the reason I have been a little busy...

Either Carbon or Carbon Kevlar would be £80 per set delivered.
