Anybody know if the lower fairings from Buell are going to be done in the white and red? The molds are made just add the plastic. |

I haven't heard anything, but the literature says they're paintable . . . |

Yeah but that's extra cash to have it done right. Plus there's color matching and the possibility of it flaking. |

Since Black is the fastest color, Buell didn't figure they needed to make the fairings in any other color. |

They figured only people with ugly black bikes would buy them, so they didn't make them in red or white. That would be bad ass if they came out with Hero Blue everything |

All translucid body work would be cool too. I think I saw a few kits for gixxers. The only issue with that would be the spider webbing. |

The cracking/spiderwebbing is due to using the wrong screws and over-torquing them. I got Hero Blue plastics on my Uly, and even with a tall windshield and hitting a car, it hasn't cracked. |

talking about the lower fairings on the 1125R, I saw the first stock bike with a set of lower fairings installed on it yesterday. Sharp looking! I think Buell should make it stock on all the 1125R's. |
