Mooch I use to run the D&D and this is what she looked like.



But after 8000 miles it was too much and I put my modified stock can back on.

That Silver is really different. I think the rims would look great in silver too.

I think with a black frame/swing arm and black wheels that silver would look awesome

It was hard for me to pick a color that went with the blue frame, but I think the satin silver looks really good....Ive thought about figuring out a way to polish just the lip of my rims, but I think with the wheels being powder coat it would be kinda tough.

Thanks Ian, I wasn't sure of the year.
That was a cool deal, 5 or 6 of us swapped wheels virtually for free.
BadWeB rocks.

I just added my front and rear sliders, and longer brake and shift pegs that I got from Blackflash, I love them. A breeze to put on and look great. The pegs make a world of difference.check em out:

Avalaugh, I love those stripes and belly pan!

I'm thinking about modifying an XB chin fairing for my "25r" eventually,it's gonna be a pain in the ass to do after sitting one close up but I' think it'll be worth it and it's another freebie.

I'll post some pics of the different phases mine's been through. Don't tell the Mrs. though, this Buell was supposed to stay stock.
This is how it started,innocently enough after a trade for CF airbox and the only $$$ that was supposed to be spent for the bike was that there Death&Doom exhaust. Oh yeah and a trade for the silver wheels too.







Here she is doin her track duty.

about to touch.bmp (64.9 k)



This is when the red accents started to come on.



And this is when when things got a little crazy after an offer to trade body colors came up.








And finally a two-tone scheme I like after getting the frame and swing arm done.

So I had a buddy ask me last night what we might like T&D customized on our bikes since aftermarket is limited for goodies. I've seen grenade pegs and skull bar end weights, u guys got any other ideas? He's gonna sell the stuff pretty cheap as a hobby.

Ahh how wise you are Fres-Yes, the pegs were custom on HD. My question was what might be cool for our bikes. Let me know if that's too complicated...

Nah it's not complicated if you express your ideas more clearly.

How about this:

Hows that working with no mirrors? Also the block offs are turn signals right? If so where did you get them?

I PUT THE TURN SIGNALS WHERE THE RUNNING LIGHT WERE. I PUT A SMALL CAMERA UNDER MY TAG AND A SMALL MONITOR OVER MY CLUSTER SO I CAN STILL SEE BEHIND ME.

The camera was a simple back up camera I bought at a local auto parts store. It came with everything you need. The set up works well but could benefit from a better camera. cost was $80.00

That red is rad.I also put colored bulbs in my running lights and wired them for turn signals.It really cleans the bike up.

It really did clean up the front gave it a little more racy look. I got rid of the rear turn signals and put on the intergrated tail light set up really made a huge difference out back.

The set up works well could use a little better camera can be a little hard to see when the sun is low and behind you has a pretty bad glare. I did a little looking and have been told a better camera could fix these problem but have not tried it yet.

You get a little glare off headlight when they get real close like at a light but not bad when riding. I hope the new camera will fix these problems. All in all it works very well There is almost no blind spot witch is great.
