You were a bit vague about the package type, but you should be able
to use a quite cheap eprom burner for the PC at US$140 class prices,
with an adapter for the PLCC package if thats what it uses.

I have the Needhams one at that price, with a 40 pin ZIFF socket. The socket
is basically purely mechanical on the end of the ribbon cable back to the
internal PC card with the electronics on it. So it should be relatively easy
to make a PLCC adapter yourself if the Sportster does use PLCC eproms.

Could be a problem given the fact that the
news would spread like wildfire presumably.
