Thanx guys. Its was a f*!@#$%^ pain in the bung to do! I guess i've spent 90 hours in total doing this. Wasnt easy but can be done fairly easy if you look at my pics. Still it requires a lot of work but it takes the guess work out of the equation =) |

The subframes and the brackets werent the biggest issue as some might think. It was the voltage regulator brackets and fitting everything under the seat that caused the biggest head aeche not to mention getting the seat to fit AND fiberglass undertray based around an ilmberger carbon undertray! |

BEEE-utiful Andros!!
Indeed, that is what the CR SHOULD have looked like from the start.
Great work!

Great job Andros!
Now, I bet you could fit everything under the seat easier if you had used a ULY seat and tail!
Very nice looking indeed! |

now thats what I am talking about.
Love that belly pan, how does it mount up? Did you really pay 450 Euros? That is crazy. |

That is some stunning work. Obviously the seat, but the chin and paint too.
Nice job Andros. |

Yeah i paid about 400 eur for it at solobuell. Expensive i know but I think it needs it when removing the stock can since it visually finishes the bottom shape of the bike.
The belly pan is crafted in a really nice quality with 3 super solid brackets that fits perfectly. 2 of the brackets mounts to the engine and 1 mounts to the rearset. German quality =). I had the brackets powder coated black as well.
The seat is a little lower but not much. But the seat is much much more comfortable. I will be adding the lowered pegs soon so the angles of the knees are not too harsh.
Now i just need ceramic coated headers with the head shield ground off. Red gloss front caliper. Glossy black wheels with no stripe, wave disc at the rear. Navigation. LSL drag bars, hand guards and rizoma mirrors and that will be it for now =) |

I didnt realize you lived in europe already. I was thinking with the exchange rate it would about 50% more.
Do you have any high quality pics?
I am thinking of the Buell race pan, but I assume you probably need to fab the brackets. No big deal. But yours looks wicked.
Great job! |
