I sent mine in, but unfortunately, to the untrained eye, mine doesn't look like anything custom whatsoever...

Steve, was that originally a 'bolt, a Lightning or a Uly? HID lights? Are those Buell hard bags in the rear? |

The bike started out as a Super TT. Added the firbolt fairing with Hella 90MM lights, and grafted on a powdercoated(to match the frame)Ulysses tail section and side cases. |

Hi Steve, looks great! Did you have any trouble installing the Hella 90MM lights? Any alterations required on the electrical front? |

Ah, this is a thread that Gabe started. I am more than happy to hijack it. Arrgggggh Dread Pirate Cheesebeast off the starboard side! Seriously, nice work Steve. I was hoping that it was a "plug and play" on the Hellas but I guess not (!). |

You mean you're supposed to wash 'em? I thought that is what the rain is for |

Maybe I will send in some pics of my bike (well ... pics of how it will look tomorrow night ... if I can get someone to take pictures at the strip ..) Slammed - maybe 3-4 inches off the ground, with race flyscreen and wheelie bars ... That's a bit of a different look for a Buell ... |

Dang, I guess sending a pic of mine in is a waste of time. Y'all got my little bike way out classed! I wonder if EZ will send in pics of his Blasts... |

Bads1, you have to send in pictures of your bike. It's the best looking XB I've ever seen. No offense to all the owners of the great bikes I've seen on this site the past four years. |

Thanks Mark, I sent a couple shots to Gabe a couple days ago. He responded back to me. I guess he's going to use them. |

you guys are embarrassing me! I'll write Gabe and see if they'll consider a "ratbike" special. I'd kick your BUTTS! (there's some really great looking machinery here!) |

Has the method for uploading on badweb changed? Or have I just forgotten how to do it? Here is the shot I was trying to upload, but the window seemed only to allow browsing from my computer and not pasting in this URL. What am I missing here? http://www2.propichosting.com/Images/450013540/9.j pg |
