dang, I missed this.. I think this is probably one of the greatest things I've seen come out in a long time!!!!!!!!!

I don't know HOW many times I heard my stupid handle bars squeek, have to pull the clamp off. throw some grease in there, and sit back to wait to do it again. I will be getting one of these!

A quick conversation with OMI Products revealed a group buy option

qty      price
1         $39
10         34
25+       30
130+      ??

Let's gauge interest for a short time...  I would recommend getting one as a replacement before you need it. 

They make these for Yamaha & Honda & mixing will not be allowed, so either all ordered are Yamaha's or Honda's.  Credit card payment only.

Hi. This is Karen at OMI Products.  Thanks for the call today. One thing I should mention, unless I can ship you one box to one address, there will be shipping charges per address shipped to.  I will give you a discounted shipping rate of $10.00 per address(normally $14) if that is the route you want to take.  OR parts can always be picked up at the national events(MX or TT) every weekend at no charge.

Thanks again for your call and interest in our product!
