Just an update on the caliper brackets. I have 8 of them water jet and am sending them off for machining on Saturday. I'll do one and fit it to my bike to make sure there are no issues. shold have the other 7 ready to go in a few weeks.
I'm not sure how much new ones are, you could call a Duc shop and ask. Ebay has them all over the place.... just put "ducati rear brake caliper" in the search. $40 - $60 should be a pretty good price on a used caliper.
I am till waiting on the machining quote, but I'm 99% sure I'll be moving forward with this. I'll need to create the first one and test it to make sure there are no clearance issues first. When it is ready I'll let folks know.
....and just for some back-ground on me, I'm a senior product engineer for the worlds largest automotive parts manufacture. I have 7 years in manufacturing and 2 in product. I will not release a product if I am not 100% confident in it. The components I design at work are steering related and safety is our #1 focus.

Let me know i have the caliper. Just waiting for the bracket. Thanks This rocks
I would be interested in one as well, put me on the list.
They are looking great! I am very jealous of the equipment you have at your disposal!
let me know the price when ready to ship my firebolt is all apart doing a long swing arm conversion.
I am very close guys. I will have the first machined part today. I will try and get it on tonight. Unfortunately there is snow on the ground and the roads are icy, it might take a few days before I can get out and give it a thorough test session. Looks like $55 will be the final pricing.
So far I have:

Evlxb: I'd like to see shots of the CAD if you're still okay with posting it....but in reality this is a simple bracket and really can't be changed a ton. I've got the 3D CAD at work - I can post a few screen dumps if anyone is interested.
