Sound like something to try on a cold winter day.

That's cool. But can you imagine if you needed to replicate the ENTIRE bike?!? The road is being cut as we speak...

They could have all plastics scanned and stored, and made to order as needed. Or scanned files sold online then downloaded to your local print shop, or home 3D printer.

You might be on to something there Goosey! That could be the beginning of an entirely new industry. Imagine a line of shops that have access to dimensions for licenced plastic parts for cars, scooters, bikes, boats, whatever. OR somebody making a few bucks on the side with a home 3D printer. In no time flat parts can be supplied. I've been checking and the 3D printers aren't that expensive. A home-built one can be had for a few hundred bucks, while a pretty decent fully assembled home use one costs a few thousand. Here's a decent list: www.additive3d.com/3dpr_cht.htm
