    Nice You should get together with one of our sponsor like Bajaron and let him import a few dozen I am sure they will sell.

    I would like one too!

    I would PM Lamont and explain what is going on and that you are making these. It's safety in my mind so maybe you can work something out.

    So if you can convince The administrators then yes I can sell you one.... Cheers
    No go..........
    Maybe you can camp on to one of the existing vendors that may have shown interest.
    This is an unfortunate turn.

    Yea... I will believe it when I see it

    For now those CNC'ed units look like the perfect thing.

    I do not know what Lamont charges for advertising but if enough people want the thing and we split it up, we can "fund" the guy!

    If you are selling for profit you are a vendor and have to follow the same rules as any other vendor, it's not based on your age, it's based on profit.
    Here's the rules of the forum if you haven't seen them but I'm guessing you have.

    Lamont, so he can sell if it's at cost and not for profit? Not sure he is willing to do that but wanted to check that is OK?

    I don't care what he does off the board but if he's not giving them away he can't promote them on the board.

    Default YOU SHOULD ALL CONSIDER THIS

    ....Really I am, that " ARM " is a work of art and He should be awarded some kind of medal / trophy etc. for what He has accomplished. And I am not being facetious in saying this , I really mean it......But , and there is always a but......If you get this " ARM " .....have you thought about what you are going to do with it.........I'm serious .......When I looked at this problem, one of the main stumbling blocks was dis-assembling the shaft from the arm.......BECAUSE BRP didn't make it to be DIS-ASSEMBLED after it was made ......I'm not jerking your chains on this......and I'm not trying to throw water on this either......But if you had the " ARM " .....then what...........Even if you have a friendly dealer ( ha ha ) They are not equipped to dis-assemble this part and put it back together...........Now I know Bob is going to answer this post by telling us .....to all just eat some more ice-cream ......Personally I think He should Patent it and submit it to BRP, so they can use it to fix this problem , since their engineers can't ....Mikeguyver

    The rules for the site, linked by Lamonster are straightforward and fair.

    The billet arm is cool.

    As you guys mentioned, form a partnership and import them.

    I need to draw this arm and the other two. Maybe carbon fiber with a vertical honeycomb core, but titanium would be cool too.

    To Bluenight,
    I bought noboots arm and installed it myself, now I'm no mechanic however if you take your time and follow his directions it was not all that difficult. If you don't know one end of a spanner from the other then maybe you have a friend who does that could help.

    Update-
    i did the JBWELD hose clamp fix and it worked through a fifty mile, bumpy road ride holding well. Will try a couple of hundred mile ride tomorrow and if it holds off I go on Wednesday -thanks for the information.

    Default 2012's

    Has anyone been having issues with the 2012 RT-S's breaking?
    Mine was recently in a front end collision , mainly just the frunk got scratched up and the the right fender, and some other
    stuff that Spyderpops and Pittbull are handling, but after reading this, and knowing it was a pretty significant whacking,
    as my arms and wrists can attest to, I am wondering if I don't need to replace or get a reinforced one?

    I can not find the pic of the arm made by "noboot". Can someone post it? Thanks, Tom
    Baloo is my name. Spyders are my game. Well, it's a doo-bah-dee-doo, yes, it's a doo-bah-dee-doo, I mean a doo-bee, doo-bee, doo-bee, doo-bee, doo-bee-dee-doo. And, well, now. Ha ha! What have we here?

    deleted and I do not know why he was just showing what he made and wasn't really trying to sell them. Other people come up with fixes and it was really more of a public service since the BRP cost is stupid to fix it, I hope he contacts a vendor to sell them for him it is was what BRP should have done instead as using pot metal.
