The seller is from Germany, I've brought stuff from him. The triples will not fit on a Hypermotard, I've got the same set on my Paul Smart.

i would not buy anything from germany ... it will try to invade and conquer the surrounding parts on your hypertard, then set up prison camps in your garage.

edit: i saw mooners comment about the seriousness of seeing the camps ... i have seen them too and was left with an ill feeling of what had taken place in them. i apologize if my comments offended anyone, and i only included the smiley face rolling eyes in case any nazis are reading this forum.

Why is it that we have a lack of trick parts available to us in the USA?

i would venture a guess that this is due to a lack of vision on the part of US importers and dealers who could be marketing these trick parts that are manufactured out of country ... and also to a lack of US manufacturers to commit to develop and manufacture parts for a niche market (i mean, hypermotards, or even ducatis in general, will never reach the critical mass that harleys and jap bikes have in the US marketplace).
that said, i would also venture that a forward thinking business person could see the opportunity presented in capturing a small market, by providing quality products at a reasonable margin (i.e.: if i had OPM, i would do this myself).

We do, it's just a little on the hidden side.
I can get you any NCR parts that you want, just tell me and I get you some info.

Well NCR stuff is a little out of my budget. But it would be nice to see some of the other lower priced items that we can't or don't get here. It would be nice to see more importers of parts to help get the price on some of these to go down a little.
I will be getting a carbon fiber rear fender from you guys soon. I am waiting for the bank accounts swelling to go down from the hit it took these last 2 months.
