Author Message   Methed Posted on Tuesday, April 20, 2010 - 08:50 am:        When can I order this airbox cover, and can it at least be modified to fit an XB? http://gallery.mac.com/thomas_wanner#100114/barrac uda-airboxcover&bgcolor=black Am I nuts, or would that just be about the sickest look on a black Uly?   Mikef5000 Posted on Tuesday, April 20, 2010 - 09:26 am:        That looks badass! But I don't think it'd fit over the XB airbox. It looks to low and flat.   Methed Posted on Tuesday, April 20, 2010 - 10:01 am:        Sounds like a challenge to me!   Ccryder Posted on Tuesday, April 20, 2010 - 02:10 pm:        XB and 1125 airbox covers are the same, fitment wise.   Froggy Posted on Tuesday, April 20, 2010 - 02:24 pm:        Yes but the 1190 has a different frame and different inner airbox. All bets are off if the outer cover will fit.   Not_purple_s2 Posted on Tuesday, April 20, 2010 - 04:05 pm:        I"m thinking it would but might require a low profile open element filter   Ccryder Posted on Wednesday, April 21, 2010 - 10:53 am:        Thanks Frank, I didn't know the 1190 was a different frame. I knew they used a different intake track etc. With the shower head injectors above the TB's I would have expected the airbox to actually be taller.

I remember when all bets were off that one could put an R tail on an S...   Froggy Posted on Wednesday, April 21, 2010 - 02:22 pm:        Yea but the R and S use the same frame and mounting points, so its an easy answer.   Glitch Posted on Wednesday, April 21, 2010 - 02:46 pm:        It's easy now, because it's been done. The argument then was the wiring harness is different, the subframe is different etc. The way I see it, unless the dimensions are way off, it's doable. Fabrication needed, but when was a Bueller beyond a little fabrication?   Nevrenuf Posted on Wednesday, April 21, 2010 - 02:58 pm:        that would look sweet on any bike. hope it does fit up.   Eweaver Posted on Wednesday, April 21, 2010 - 04:46 pm:        Froggy, Does the 1190RR have a different frame? I don't recall ever eyeballing that bit of info. Could you point me down the path where you found that? thanks   Froggy Posted on Wednesday, April 21, 2010 - 04:56 pm:        Source is a former Buell worker. Next to nothing was carried over from the 1125 to 1190 bikes. You can see the difference in the photos at the link above.   Rex Posted on Wednesday, April 21, 2010 - 05:49 pm:        Notice the indention where the Buell logo shield would have gone...REX   Eweaver Posted on Wednesday, April 21, 2010 - 09:59 pm:        Well, crap balls! I reckon you are correct about the frame. I was really hoping that monster was built off the 1125. Bummer.   Ratbuell Posted on Wednesday, April 21, 2010 - 10:09 pm:        Is the frame-frame different? Or just the rear subframe?
