blokes (and gals) a lot of water has gone under the bridge but about 2 years ago you blokes got me started with parts for the `Strom.
I had a ride on the 1000cc model and it changed me from sports bikes to Adventure bikes overnight. I am a biker and have been for a few decades and had the chance to make a few parts for my mate and his DL1000.
My boring day job is running Cymarc (a manufacturing Company - some of you blokes have visited.....) but I set up Cymarc Bike Parts 2 years ago along with the help of YOUR support and the help of Andy. I have some trick bits of kit (1 of 6 cutting edge laser profilers in the country) which I use for R&D and making single order bike parts - I have recently taken on a Lady who has served me loyally in the past to take the small business to the next level and to get back in touch with my `roots` - the blokes who helped me 2 years ago.
My wares then got the accolade of being noticed by you blokes and along with the help of Andy I actually got started making gear. Its still only a slightly commercial `focused obsession` (I have a day job) and its not however I love what I do, incredibly proud of my reputation and I am very proud of my gear. I don't `mass produce` or look to engineer cost out of stuff rather its all hand finished by me with love and I sell it for very fair prices.
I ride BMW adventure bikes (yeah I know, Sorry) but still have all the wherewithal to make stuff for the `Strom up to but excluding the very latest 2013 model so I do hope to have some stuff which will be well received. I have a small stock which the Lovely Lady by the name of Shelly will be listing for you to consider - prices are 20% lower than what they should be along with free delivery to UK based Strommers. I am well happy to make more gear for you blokes if you just tell me what you want - what I currently do is advertised on my site
http://www.cymarcbikeparts.co.ukMost importantly THANK YOU to all the people who said such kind things about my stuff and OH SO IMPORTANTLY a huge thank you to Andy - if it wasn`t for his help and recognition of something not the commercial norm then I simply wouldn`t have got started. I love my work and people tells me it shows and that's good enough for me!
So, to hopefully prove my credentials here is a post/link/photo from a while ago from kindly Strommers - please feel free to check its authenticity, you may recognise the couple of members, but please believe me - I`m not a faceless git trying to sell you stuff made by a Chinaman!

And if someone could just remind me how to post an image...................... :text-imnewhere:
