Suspension parts may be a bit much, but I've had good success with smaller parts for my race bike. Like brackets for a CO2 regulator that would have been difficult in metal due to angles necessitated by the curve of the fender. http://www.daves-speedshop.com/CO2brackets.php Making my own velocity stacks for the throttle bodies allowed me to add mounts for a sensor and the airbox tray. http://www.daves-speedshop.com/graphics/FT550/sparkPro2.jpg I couldn't make those out of metal without a full CNC mill.
