hey hey - ran across a couple of pics of an XB other day - trawling for inspiration and ideas - really like what they have done with this bike.
looks like a US plate? so was wondering if anyone had any more pics from front / side? or even some idea of spec.

cheers in advance.

i can't help you with specs or pictures of this bike.
But if your just trawling for inspiration and ideas, maybe these sites are of interress :

http://www.x-race.net/
http://www.r-r-customizing.de/
http://www.speed-of-color.de/index.php

their all German companies but they've got some nice looking tubers and XB's on their site.

Those look like the Ohlins XBRR forks.

The rear shock reservior also looks Ohlins - gold with the blue logo.

Looks like it started as an XB-S, then an R tail was added, and a custom upper tree and the gauge setup. Slick.

Looks like a Lightning with a Firebolt tail and a nice paint job.

I would say neither but Iman is closest.

it looks like a bolt with a custom front end on it.

probably did it when they put the ohlins forks custom triple and trick gauges.
