Looks like they got their first kit out and from the article it states it's a guy in the US. Wouldn't happen to be a Badweber would it? I'm very interested in this kit as I'm sure a lot of you are. This prolly should go to the Xb forum though. |

Well, if any news does surface, I'm interested in this kit too and have a friend who is considering purchasing one. As I don't look in the XB topics, I'd not see it if it went there topic wise. Thinking I'll give the XB topics a glance......scratches head Rocket in England |

Mac Motorcycles were on the money but HD wouldn't allow them the motors after the end of Buell. Pretty sure this will be old news on BadWeB, but here you go if you need a look. http://www.mac-motorcycles.com/spud_black.html And the C&J flattrackers too. Rocket in England |

winter is coming - we expect a full build up thread let the envy begin and yes a blast based flat tracker would be killer, the Mac guys never did a flat tracker, though they got really close |

"Without pictures, it never happened" Here is the way it looks, so far. As I mentioned, I'm taking my time. Bob

Wow Carbonfibrebob. Take your time. It'll be worth it. So Bob, is it right, you have the first and only Bott kit so far? Rocket in England |

Yes, this is the first kit. I don't know if David has produced any more as of yet. He sold me this one at a discount so I could provide feedback on assembly and such. Bob |

So, from the looks of it, the back half (swingarm, engine, etc.) can be left on the lift and you just build around it like you're doing engine work on the XB chassis? |

Bob, Are you going to bring that by my shop so I can ride it? |

Thanks Bob. Anything of interest you can share here about your build experience which Bott wouldn't object to? Rocket in England |

I've always though an XR750 street tracker or true track framed XL supertracker would be sweet. That bike is not quite that, but it has the spirit. |
