    They look nice, pity my 1998 750 is getting out of date/demand in the market or i'd leave it with you for the winter as a template, see what goodies you come up with...
    Have you thought about doing dirtbike style 'pivot pegs' DR650 riders and other adventure bikers be interested, the ones available at moment seem quite expensive for such simple part.
    Your website was running a bit slow but see you are still working on it

    This whole project has been put on the backburner, tbh I haven't done anything web related in about a year except pay the bills, so I probably should update it to reflect the state of the project. Just looked at the pivot pegs, not so suited to milling for production, and tbh I don't think that price is too bad, especially considering the lifetime warranty.

    Yes and no; yes if you are asking out of interest, no if you want me to help you make one

    It's based on an Opencart template, got help from a graphics design mate to suss out colors to make it look modern but also a bit distinctive, which I think worked quite well. The test now will be to see if I can make some wee changes without borking it up some.

    Was asking purely out of interest. Saw the powered by 'OpenCart' thing and looked at their site, seems like a cool product.
    Graphics design ( css, etc ) is hard to do and really requires someone with an arty flair ( which I don't have ).

    Site layout looks good.

    Considering entering the online battery market anytime soon? Give your old chum Ed a run for his money?

    Yeh, Opencart has a really good backend too, and plenty of standard templates to get you going. I used Opera Dragonfly to inspect the CSS elements and identify what needed to be changed, rather than actually knowing what did what on the whole thing; easy enough to pick up with that feedback loop.

    Haha, nope, I'm a design guy who does production occasionally, and retail only reluctantly.
