New aftermarket gasgas product ideas. Things you would like to see?
Hello, I have been considering creating a niche hobby buisness designing and producing dirtbike parts that no larger companies are currently producing. I have some ideas that are not gasgas specific but thought maybe there are some products that are seen on other makes that gasgas riders would be interested in. I have a mechanical engineering degree and have experience creating prototypes and one off products in various industries from robotics to biomedical. However Ive wanted to use this knowledge to create products I am more passionate about. I have 3D modeling software and have local machine shops and anodizing shops that ive worked with for past projects. So I was just wondering what suggestions people might have for products that could have atleast enough interest to do a small production run of say 25-50 pieces. Could be anything from useful parts to just "bling" stuff. Im currently on an 07' ec300 that i can test parts on, also have access to a 00' 250 and possibly other bikes if need be. Thanks for any help!

Magnetic drain bolts with a regular hex head instead of the stock recessed allen on the stock bolt. Same for the oil fill hole.

Wheel spacers are the only "wear" item that I can think of that's not readily available on the aftermarket. I would love to have a source for those.

shorty levers, shift and brake pedals, ALUMINUM skid-plate-pipe-guard combo that will bolt onto the frame.

Front and rear disc guards would be nice.
This one is off of a WR Husky that I had to mortify.

Fork bleeders for Sachs forks. Axle pullers.

I hate how sloppy the rear brake pedal is. I would pay good money for a solution to that.
