I am certainly interested in a set, provided they are designed/engineered from scratch, and made from the correct "Duro" material. Prefer something that will be drop in and forget....

I currently have a set of the South African blocks fitted. These are a "flop" of the OEM blocks, but do require some sanding to bring them into specification. Recently had them out for inspection after doing 10,000K's and they appear to be standing up reasonably well. Cant see them lasting more than 50,000K's though

BTW, I have also done the double row bearing mod.

I would suggest most Aussie owners would be in also, so long as the final cost plus shipping is reasonable. You guys have alot of reasonably priced gear over there but once shipping is factored in, tends to push the purchase into the unreasonable end of the market.

Lucky we are reasonably well serviced with some fantastic locals...wish one was into poly fab.

As I have said before a couple times...
I made a set.. must be close to 3 years ago
from 95A poly sheet... cut them with a hack saw
use plenty of CRC/WD40 on the blade..
I have notice lately they are just starting to
losen up... I made them a very tight fit....

If I make another set I will try 70D I think..
D shore is harder than A shore...

yer can get the poly sheet of E-bay...

Yes please
 
I'd buy a set and I have 4 other XT riding mates who probably would too. I fitted a new set of OE rubbers 4000km ago and already have room for inner tube packing. One long off road trip was enough to start to wear the piece of crap OE ones. Previous comments on price look about right to me. I think they cost �32 in Yamaha dealers in the UK, but I'd be willing to pay �50ish for something that is better and that lasts.

Put me down for a set if they get made, price?, I guess I would go up to �50.
