Working Samples

Pat spun a starter bearing yesterday & that put a halt to dialing in his bike for Saturdays ride so I took the opportunity to put in a few hours on the first working samples of the Kicker pedal & air cleaner.
So far I'm pretty pleased with both. Check them out but keep in mind there will be quite a few changes before they're ready.
I'm thinking the logos will be different on the pedal, some of the lines softened up a bit, a smaller bolt. The air cleaner will be changed the most with no visable logo & a completely different look on the front, a different mounting system & possibly a bit thinner.

  2. Kicker pedal is sick! How about slim versions as pegs for us non-kickers...

  4. yeah i am digging the idea behind the air cleaner for sure, but agree with luke on the ball milling. i think the ball millimg gives it to much of a "billet" look. what if you incorperated some sort of fins like on the points covers. or some sort of curved face to give it a more organic look? this is just my $.02 though. either way though i want to sport your stuff cause i really dig your quality from what i have seen.

    As for familiar, maybe because it's round and filters air? I know, we should stick to more original ideas like a finned points cover.
