    3D printing of throttle body

    Given the obsolescence of the OEM throttle bodies for many of our GS models, I was wondering why we don't get someone to print a 3D throttle body for us.
    The idea being that we only need the housing for the mechanical part as we could use non OEM switches for the electrical part.
    While throttle bodies are on the market such as the Domino XM2 model, the advantage beyond the price would be to be able to use the OEM throttle cable.
    Any candidates out there?

    Do you have a CAD file? I work for a 3D printer manufacturer and could print it in Nylon 11.

      That would be great!
      I don't have a CAD file but might find someone who would do it for me.
      I'll keep you informed.
