This is a local guys' XB. I met him when it was orange, and I prefer that better, but this is it now. I'd like to say this is my handiwork, but alas, that is not true. Yes, it's just as clean in person. http://www.swmosportbikes.com/forum/showthread.php ?t=22657&highlight=buell |

I like it. It would go down the strip probably pretty good stretched like it is.

Same as yours. Just infront of the rear wheel in the swingarm. |

dude even chromed the passenger peg arms. I'm not sure I like the frame painted other than black or silver. The welds just dont look right to me. |

looks nice though the only reason i would use such a long swing arm is for drag racing |

Mirrors, license plate, passenger pegs, STOCK turn signals, STOCK controls.... I just don't get it. I do, however, like the color. A lot. 4/10, purely for the color. |

I like it for what is. As far as some of the stock pieces?? I'm quite sure this bike isn't done.Money doesn't grow on tree's and I don't think any of us here did all our mods over night. I know that swingarm is some ching. The paint wasn't cheap either. Wheel's he had close to 8-900 into chroming them.Everyone has taste of there own. If ya like cool thats great say so if not why say anything at all. |

that paint looks really familiar........... i like the bike. i think they went a little over board with the shade shifting pearl. but like dana said it may not be complete yet either. |

It's as done as it will get with this owner, the thread I linked to is the "for sale" ad (Weird some of you can't see it, thanks for posting pics). The owner built the swingarm himself, and this bike is definitely street-ridden. The first two times I saw it, he had ridden it to visit us at CycleConnection, from Springfield, a 180 mile round-trip. He hit twisties with it too. I don't care so much for stretched swingarms (Maybe an inch or two, but that's it), and I liked it orange, but the work is top-notch. |

what it shows it how customizable these bikes are. It's a blinger that's for sure. |

Not my style, but +1 for going out of the box and taking it to the next level. |
