So I just found out Airtech is closed. I had no idea. I'm on their email list and I never heard anything. It's a serious gut punch. There were a number of different fairings I was planning to order in the future.

Seems like businesses are closing up shop at a good clip right for a while. I was looking for a cafe style seat for another project I have going on (CB200) for my son. A place I've bought from before called legendary-motorcycles is out of business as well.

During Covid my wife had to shut down her storefront and her online sales still haven't recovered.
I don't mind too much she is less stressed which is good thing for anyone who knows her lol.

That is truly very bad news.
They had molds for damn near anything you could ask for...all thrown away...freakin heart breaking.

Yeah, I'm legitimately sad about it.

It's sad to see them go. I just saw that SUDCO is closing too.

i mean, that sucks but also fuck them for pitching the moulds into the dumpster, that was a shitty move.

I haven't bought anything from airtech in many years, glass from the past has been my go-to.

Yeah, I agree Mark. I can't imagine why they would trash all those molds. I'll have to check out Glass From the Past.

Thats idiotic. Have some business sense, post on a few of these boards, FB, whatever as I bet someone would have bought the molds most sought after. I bought one of their rear mud guards, or whatever you call them. Took 6 weeks but works and looks great.

a very 'dog in the manger' attitude.
