Cory Texter's Blast - the kids got a real talent and his sister ain't far behind - their bike is partially Buell supported, and they did very well this year!

Nice job...everyone seems to be posting their rear ends and headlights lately...you'd think this is the Hooter's website...LOL! Once again, a creative solution, now you can put those reflectors on your tool box...wait a minute looks like someone broke into your garage...I'm glad my wife won't see that picture!

That link is for the billet dash only.
The tach that fits is available from Westach (see link on this site).
Takes about 6 weeks to get one. *However* they are slated to send mine out Oct 21st so if you place your order soon they may build it the same time they build mine and you will get it a lot sooner.
Appx $160.

I'm trying to get better pics tomorrow, but I haven't seen any pipes like this yet, and I think it really looks hot, plus you lose about 20-30 lbs. off the bike by losing the muffler, and you gain 2-3 inches of ground clearance.....*note busted old muffler in back ground, weld broke at header pipe so I got creative and used my dads harley pipes for his bike that isn't done yet: )*

wow, that looks pretty sweet. So those harley pipes just fit right on, huh? I was thinking about doing a custom exhaust just today too. How does it sound?

That confirms my suspicions that the drag pipes will work. Is that off a Sportster or Big Twin?
You'll (should) find that the power is more than stock but not as much as with a muffler (backpressure). Looks like it work well with some rearsets.
Drag pipes $75 on ebay!
(I have an extra,new, HD muffler I'll sell you if you need it)

it needs to be bent a little, the rear brake lever hits the pipe, and it needs a mount made for it, but that should bolt right onto the peg area...

Quite correct, however, there are some universal mounting kits out there - WB, Kerker and several others make them. Surely there are enough mounting points to adapt a few.

Naustin, can't say what exactly it's for, it was laying around the yard from my dad's current bike building project and I usurped it...

Its a cool bike, but my reaction is pretty much "mehh". I like that its a blast frame and engine, but all that plastic on it looks bad, in my opinion at least.

LOL - yeah - loose the plastic, add the Joker Retagular alum. Bilit light, mirrors with turn signals on them ftont and back, bob that rear fender so only 5" remain, add 5 more degrees of rake by getting an adjustable tripple tree, loose the rear passenger part of the peg legs, chop 5" from the front and back of the front fender, ditch the regular peanut tank for a Frisco tank, catseye rear light, Z-bar handlebars, Black chrome grips, darken the red to blood red and add different pegs, and some under motor lighting, drag pipe, some skulls - a few other small touches as well would bring it right up to snuff - lol

Should have put on a nice tall spoked front wheel too.

The blast has small wheels anyway, but when you go and do something like that, the front especially looks positively puny.
