You're not seeing the value in brand recognition, and just a radiator doesn't cut it, you need the whole bike to make sure every thing fits properly.
There are also different setups like an 05 06 radiator on an 03 04, then you have different fan setups, dual fan setups, I could go on and on.
Getting the jigs is just a small part of buying a business like this.

These steel frames. Id like to see more companys doing full steel frames. But made to order. Lets say I want to front mount an ohlins damper to my fork tube and head tube. That company sould offer that simple service of welding a bracket to the neck. And not just 636 frames. We should see more f4i and gsxr frames I think people like the concept of a steel frame for looks a little more than strength. tube frames look fucking sick
sub frames for certin bikes are geting scarce. I know there are steel subframes out there but they are of the scale as far as weight. Someone should make aluminum ones but brace it differently. Now days weight means allot to stunters. Also custom ones. Lets say someone wants to put a 09 zx6 tail and seats on a 04. I think that shit would sell quick.
Those are just a few

Mike there are already companies that have big rotor kits with radial mount calipers in the U.S, and making a custom damper mount on a steel frame is as simple as welding on a bracket, you should be able to get any welder to do that.
Expecting a small stuntframe company to have every single damper known to man on hand to make a custom mount seems a little much don't you think? Especially considering most people mount the damper in the location it was designed to be mounted in.

I had 32 different applications for my subcages, getting every single bike here to make a jig was no small job.

getting the bikes is a bitch and getting them long enough to make an assortment of parts is like taking a cake from a fat kid.
