If I'm not mistaken, one of these bikes is a Lightning, right? It looks like it from the front end, but it has high twin pipes, and the front brake doesn't look like a ZTL. If it is a Lightning, well, hey, that's free publicity for Buell! (Though maybe not the kind that the PR people like...)

Don't know what bike it is, it's not a Lightning though.
SV650s and SV1000s use the Buell flyscreen and headlamps often when customizing.

Looks like one. They probably had a custom exhaust done. Looks pretty good...

No ZTL and twin exhaust exiting near the tale light.

Can't tell for sure, but I'd say no.

Glitch - you're probably right. I didn't know there was such a big demand for Lightning flyscreens on SVs.

That's it, ruin the evil outlaw angle marketing could have run with.

Thought Buell when I saw it a few days ago. But the high exhaust said a custom like the SV posted above.

I think Glitch is right...I slowed it down a bit and noticed that the tank is different as well.

"Speed Triple?"

My thought exactly, but the swing arm looks too thick in the video.
