Thanks for the link Paul, I still can't understand that FB stuff!  :P

Looks like an interesting product. Indian price 3,000 rupees or about $47.00 USD. I would buy one just to try it and I dont even have much vibration! :o

and you don't have to butcher your filler cap after installation   :o
Never underestimate the value of improved combustion efficiency and reducing parasitic engine and rolling chassis losses.

Would this fit on GT?   Video was on a 350.   Unfortunately also says out of stock.

If it is for a UCE, I believe it would fit any UCE. Perhaps even the Carberry V-twin?   ::)

It is unfortunate that they are out of stock, and odd that the video was from a current ad on Facebook...  ???

Nevertheless, I put my name in on the email link to get one as soon as they are available. They do say "Many more coming soon" at the bottom of ad.  ;)

I will be happy to post results when I have some!  8)

   Yep, the "Out of Stock" notation caught my eye, too.
   I'm guessing here, but if Carberry manufactures the item he probably makes them on a "first-come/first served" basis, rather than make a whole lot and then hope they sell.

My interest has been confirmed by Carberry, and I have been promised one as soon as they become available.

Shipping to WA state was quoted at 1,300 rupees or about $21.00 + estimated $47.00 for part.

Although my vibration is minimal, I am intrigued. Can't wait to test it out!

Let us know as soon as you get it so we get an idea of the lead time for delivery here in the U.S., please.  :) I wouldn't mind trying one.

I paid for one a couple days ago, which they had left over from the last batch, new batch coming soon... $70.00 total with shipping.  :)

I am assuming it shipped but have no confirmation on that yet. ???

Patiently waiting... ::)

I'm eager to see the quality of the piece & how well it functions in yer motor. I'll order one up if all goes good. ;)
Nothing better than a nice putt on an RE.

Here is a pretty cool video review by a regular guy who installs a plate on his CGT. He is from somewhere very tropical... It's about 11 minutes.  :)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pX4A83IJTuk

I'm installing mine now and was checking for details in the Carberry installation video.  On that video, I noticed the alignment dowels are removed by Carberry.  Mine had to be lightly tapped with wrench to go over dowels.  :P

Now seeing how Carberry does it, I'm pulling my dowels out too. They must contribute to vibration or adversely load the new crank bearing?  ???

I also noticed how on the Carberry installation video the plate is only tightened with a regular hand held 90 degree allen wrench. Engine side cover tightened with allen T-handle. For the record, I use a large bendable 3/8" drive ratchet and allen head sockets. Hand tigtening, probably more than the video shows. :P
