Update:
The trial fitting went well and the first batch have now been manufactured- i'm collecting them tomorrow.
The fit is good, with the cush drive being a "snug" fit in the hub. These were tried in my own hub, which has 25k miles on it, so it's showing some wear but the rubbers were still a huge improvement on the worn originals. Other bikes may feel a little tighter, but this is a good thing!.
Regards cost, i've sold a few more than expected, so this will allow me to bring the final price down below the original £60 quoted to £55 plus P+P ( an additional £5 assuming postage to mainland UK).
Disclaimer.
Please remember these are pattern parts and i haven't had the development budget of BMW to test them. While i am happy to deal with any issues regarding material quality or workmanship as far as the original purchaser is concerned, i cannot extend this to cover to any related parts that may or may not fail in respect to the use of these cush drive rubbers. Neither will i accept liability for any accident that may occur through the use of these rubbers (not sure how they are likely to cause an accident, but i need to cover myself!). In short you use these rubbers at your own risk.
If you (the purchaser) do not accept with this i am happy to return deposits.
Finally..
As before, i would appreciate the outstanding balance via paypal (friends and family) before shipping. I will email everyone that has sent a deposit so far with a final balance outstanding, especially when considering the overseas orders.
Paypal address is:

If you haven't sent a deposit over your, name will have been added to the reserve list. I will be getting a second batch made up, as soon as i start getting good feedback on the first batch.
UK orders will be sent recorded delivery, alternatively you are welcome to arrange collection if you are around Hampshire/ Oxfordshire.
I am also in the process of talking with a merchant to ensure ongoing future supply, watch this space.
