I hate Jay Leno's life. Principally because it is his and not mine.
Be nice to have access to one of these to print up broken bits as needed.

I'm a 3d artist and was actually quite keen on the idea. Was thinking of making my own quick action throttle but after doing the calculations it was going to come to more then just buying one :(
Yeah I'm a 3D draftsperson (mechanical/structural) for the last 10 years and it would be awesome having a 3D printer at my disposal, I would make rearsets, levers, you name it
I do today what people won't so I can do tomorrow what people can't
group buy?
fairing stays, levers, brake guards all possible. $3K really isn't that much in the end

yes and no... the 3D model is the starting point.. then there is the conversion into the tool path that takes a fair bit of time...
by all means, passing on a 3D model in the right format is a step in the right direction, but you are still up for a lot of programming time.
Some of the guys wear the programming time as they look at it as an investment into the part that they willl recoup by selling a whole heap.
It all depends on how unique the part is and who ends up owning the IP....
At some point I will have a CNC...I just love tools...
Life's too Short- YOLO!
