I've powder coated my rear sub frame black since this photo was taken and changed my front rotor to a braking wave rotor .... |

AirTech isn't it?
or maybe Eurocomponents?
I vote shiny silver on the rear pulley... do what Scott suggests, then set up a service doing it for the rest of us! |

Its a Eurocompnents, not many made it to the states and were actually installed. they were really rough and required a lot of finish work to make them look nice. lots of hand sanding to remove flashing etc. it took a lot of work, and they're no longer available, haven't been for many years. yours is really a nice finished bike! lots of nice attention to detail. at first I thought maybe the yellow frame was going to be too much, but it really looks great! yeah that rear pulley looks great....I guess mine isn't done yet either! so who is doing the machining work on the pulleys? |

Well that is not impossible I do have this,
However it is not at my house, as I have no room and not much time after a 50 plus hour week. I like to ride and play too much. That would be a fairly easy program but I would have to have enough of them to make a setup worth the time. Scotts looks polished and that is a lot of work. But I do also have a powder coat setup.
HMMMM?
Probably cheaper to buy a mass produced chromy one. |

by the way, what bars are you running? Im working on a custom cradle that has a one inch rise, sits in the stock tree cradle, converts the bars to 1 1/8 bars and still mounts the stock gauge plate. Im still in design phase but I think I am at the final rev. I say "I" but what I really mean is a combined effort with one of the guys from here who is also a machinest (doing fantastic work! I am not mentioning his name until he lets me...he hasn't said don't, but kind of a respect thing until he says ok, but he is a buelligan!) and were taking my original drawing and a few mock up pieces, mailing revisions back and forth from coast to coast till we get it right. anyway, I think we may be at the point to call it done. I mention this in case you were looking to figure out how to mount fat bars on the bike. this is a photo from an earlier revision, final is a little more tapered. Once its complete I will start a dedicated thread.

That's cool, nice work guys!
AZB, part of the problem we face is that we are really limited in what's available for replacement/upgrade pulleys since the Sportsters and Buell's have a different bore size. I think there may only be the leftover stock of Performance Machine pulley's floating around the market at this point. |
