There has already been a fair amount of discussion regarding the fairings, but I thought I'd share what they look like on the arctic white & blue bike painted to match. Took me a while to get used to the "pods" but they grew on me after a while. But, I'm also happy with the way the fairings came out too. What do ya think??

Really nice Brian and just begging for a couple of Buell Pegasus stickers on each side. |

Eh it looks incomplete without a bellypan. |

I think that looks good with the OEM exhaust. |

I've seen in person on Brian's bike and they do look good. I think they look better on the white bike than the black. |

Powdercoat your muffler white to balance it out. Jimmy |

Great job! Looks really good! Any plans for graphics or stickers or logos or anything? |

I agree with Bishop, powdercoat that muffler white and you'll really be onto something. |

I like it! I might add some graphics to the fairing, but I wouldn't paint the muffler white. A bellypan would be nice, but not needed, the Japanese OE superbikes mostly don't have belly pans, just fairing lowers. The 1125 needs lowers; I think it makes a huge difference. |

The new Black and White Buell logo might look nice on that bodywork . . . nice. |

Needs a white or black belly pan, not a white muffler. --Sean |

Painting the muffler white would cause it to become a focal point. That's not the part of the bike I'd want being a focal point. Full lowers (covering muffler) would look good. |

not to mention that it would probably get VERY discolored over time, and end up lookin brown.. Jake BTW- looks great, but i agree with a belly pan and it would be spot on |

I think the Buell Racing logo goes better with white than the new black shield. |

Thanks for all the comments. I agree with the artwork idea. I have 8-inch blue Pegasus logos on order for each side. I designed these on Photoshop using company logo. I think that will look better than the black shield decal. A belly pan might look good too (blue with white lettering is a cool idea). I can't see powder coating the muffler white though b/c this is always dirty as it is and I'm not sure how I would ever keep it looking good. |
