Idea for hydro conversion kit

[masterhacker]

So i was looking up parts for my buddys chinese atv, and I came accross some brakes assembly's that were fairly cheap,t I thought they might make a good kit if someone made a bracket, and sold them, looking at his brakes, it looks like they could be made to work, and the brakes on his quad work fine, and have never had any issues

Hydraulic Brake Kit

Front Hydraulic Brake Assy
(ive come across the fronts much cheaper than thaty)

let me know what you guys think about it,

They look like a fairly descent low buck hydro setup and I'm sure it would work fine on a blaster.but for the time and effort it would take mock it up and work out the kinks you could get a later model blasters setup.my drums work great on mine new shoes and adjusted correctly they've been great so far.

Yeah, but I figured it might me worth it to sell em on eBay, after all the bugs are worked out, Hell I have a buddy that makes good money selling homemade exhausts for Yamaha Rd350's

good price on the rear setup. Biggest thing you have to think about is volume. If you think you could sell 100 setups and can cad the mounting bracket to put it on a blaster, then have them cut , you prolly looking around 7~10 bucks for the bracket. hopefully the hose is long enough. The key is volume, with enough units you can offset the price of brackets. Sure you can make them yourself,but your time is money. If it takes you a couple hours to make the brackets,package, ship etc.. and you have $65 in parts an material and can sell for $75 your making $10 a set, but if it takes you 3 hours altogether, your making $3.33 an hour for your work. If you have the brackets made and i takes you an hour to pack and ship 5 units...and it costs $70 in parts and materials becuse you had the parts made, still selling fr $75 thats $5 profit X 5 units = $25 profit to cover 1 hour work, thats $25 bucks an hour.

If you can sell 100 setups, at $5.00 profit, thats $500, sell 5 setups at $10.00 profit you make $50 but it cost you 15~20 hours... thats not worth the hassle.
