I think you would sell them but depends on cost, used onrs seem to go for over £50 in the US so probably £80 del in UK

I'd be interested Ben
£80 is a bit much for me as mine is good just not perfect. Can see how they would command £80 though

I sold a few earlier this year and some last year, good used OEM ones for about £35 for just the tray and about £45 with the separate bit that holds the mesh, with new mesh fitted. Yes, people will buy them but its a very, very limited market.

I sold three of them a couple of years ago ..,, all £35 each but at the time DK were regularly listing them for typically£45

Listings of them are now few and far between though and this is all I can really find that sold recently.

Let's just see how Ben's stirling efforts pan out quality/ fitting wise and take it from there.

I'd quite likely be tempted  by one depending on price, seeing what people say about used prices for OEM ones is a bit of an eye opener, at least 2 of my rather beat up cheap project bikes have these. I'd be pretty tempted to use one on my cb550 in place of the standard top of the airbox, simply because I think the cb500/4 setup is more practical to live with.
Got a 500/4 with rust and a sidecar and loadsa bits. nice and original and been round the clock

Well the market must have changed in the last few years Julie 'cos the three I sold in succession (I got them in a job lot from Japan in nice condition) sold like the proverbial sh*t off a shovel .. all at £35  each ;D

DK and other importers tend to nick 'em along with grab rails to sell separately IMHO when they sell their 'barn find projects'

I would certainly be interested, as well. If printing one is too much trouble but someone has the model around, I’d love to give a shot at printing it myself.

Did anything come of the 3d printed tool tray? If not I may have a go myself.

I got the the tray drawn up in CAD so I have the file, but not had a go at printing yet.
