Ride height adjuster, any interest?

I've recently designed a prototype ride height adjuster for my '99 Varadero.

I'm currently testing it for a few hundred miles before I finalise the design, but I wondered whether anyone would be interested in buying one, once I've got it sorted.
It simply replaces the bottom "dog bone" link and uses the standard bearings and seals. The centre bar is cut to give roughly the required height, then it can be fine tuned by threading in and out of the end pieces.
I would provide 2 of the threaded bars in case you want to switch between 2 ride heights or in case you decide that you've cut the first one too short.
Construction is all stainless. I believe it will fit later models, but will find out for sure if anyone wants to know.

If a few people are interested, I'll come up with a firm price, and finalise the design. I estimate cost will be about £40 -50 ish.

what sort of height have you raised by and what effect have you noticed on the bike?

I'm still experimenting. Yesterday I replaced my 1" lift triangular plates with this adjuster and set it for about +2", tomorrow I'll be going a bit higher.
I'm currently running AT forks & wheels which give about +2" at the front, I may yet extend or replace the forks.
I can still get both feet comfortably on the ground at the moment, but I think I'll run out of leg before I can beat the AT for ground clearance.
