It does take all kinds. But, there is one other person that will like that getup. The sellers problem is finding that person.

thats why i said to each his own. wasnt really meaning it as ragging guess it does kind of come off that way. just ment its not my fave. it just looks half done to me

i do think the pics kind of hurt it some.

and i never got mad about those people not liking mine. i do stuff because it makes me happy and i think it fits my bike

i thought that before i read that it was the orange and not red bodywork. then i would get it.

think thats my problem though is that i dont get what he was going for. not so much that its ugly or something just that i dont know, maybe he just really likes blue.

oh well, i just though it was definantly different which isnt such a bad thing

"Rare" Sunset Orange? Wow! My bike is a rare color! I think I'll LEAVE it that way, rather than destroy its good looks like this guy did.

Kind of looks like an "oops" but yes, to each his own. Obviously after doing it the person was like "shit - that didn't come out like I planned" or maybe it did!

That Ebay XB for me is a great way to highlight how Buell managed to make a smaller bike than the Tube Framers, yet the minimalist style of the Tubers remains king over the XB as Buell cluttered the look by making the XB more compact. Just look at the blue bits for proof in the pudding.

I don't like the amounts of blue that he has on it, but I want Blue body work for mine to go with the Orange wheels

thats what i think rocket. atleast in a sense.

it draws your eyes to all of the stuff that you really arent supposed to see. the stuff thats supposed to blend in and just function not draw attention.
