Man that thing is really nice, I love it, nice work!!

The only small detail I don't like is the Honda wing logo on the motor, it just does not look right there.

Its totally about money. They will only produce items that they can sell 50 of a year. If they don't sell 50 peices a year of that color then they won't make it other than for speacial order.

So thats the key to keeping out trike plastic availible, making sure maier sells 50 peices each year. I would assume that after they no longer can sell that many the molds would in theory still be availible for speacial orders.

Hey,,,not to hi-jack, but Maier will make you discontinued Plastics. Nathan Arabia, a fella that goes to school near here owns a Tecate 4. He looked everywhere for new WHITE plastics for it. (at the time) Kawasaki still had the fonts in stock, but the rears were completely sold out. He called Maier as they used to make T4 plastics. Back in the day, they were kinda sh1tty. Very dull and didn't fit real well. He wanted some new shiney stuff that was alot better quality. They told him if he were to PRE PAY for 6 or 8 rear fenders, they would retool and run them. He did, and had to fork out a bundle of cash on them. He had posted up (www.kawieriders.com) what he had planned to do, and there were about 4 rears already sold before they were made. He kept 2 for himself, and sold off the others. My buddy Rick, the guy I got 2 of my T4s from, bought a fender and it was a REALLY nice piece.

I just figured I would toss that out there so if you guys are serious...somebody take up the task...get the REAL orders together with money down....and give them a call. Let them know you will pre pay for a certain amount. Who knows, They just might fire things up.
