I got 2 k5 I would buy one but I don't know why Hinson are so worried about selling them there a market for them ,it take time for other guys to find out plus they will only buy one the other basket worn out ,it wouldn't cost them much to do it,didnt they make baskets before for the k5?I think they don't realize how many guys have these bikes out there and sooner or later will need a new basket .Keep up the good work men lets get this happening.

I'd be up for 1 complete set up or atleast the basket.  Possibly a 2nd basket for my friend

I spoke with Hinson today about making a run of 500 baskets. Was told the minimun would be 50. And half up front.

Did a search on the site about Hinson maybe making some, and couldn't find an answer. So I gave them a call.

Also checked out a guy who used to make SS inserts. It appears he has passed away. Storman Norman was his name.

Really don't want to buy OE.

I remember reading an article about Stormin Norman making clutch basket inserts in an article of Dirtbike in about 1990 or so. Few years on and I got my 500 and I searched for information on the same bloke and found nothing. Seems that I found my answer a bit late now.
That' a shame as he had a good reputation from what I read.
