I see you used the SS tail, I need the same adapters you used to get them to mount up, I got a similar project for a 1125Uly |

there is no adapters. you have to cut it apart and add some in. it was a bit of a pain.i have a lot of hours into welding it all together. i did not want to use any adapters, i wanted it to look like it was from the factory like that. thanks shawn |

Wow awesome. I lack the welding skill to pull off something like that! |

Nice work man, very unique! Love it, but those damn POD's... |

The pods are the best part, where did you think they stored the extra 43 hp? |

looks cool. The only thing I do not like is the handlebars with the top bar on it. Other than that it is a sweet bike. |

"The lightning that they should have built" I totally agree. Never thought the Firebolt tail looked good on the CR. |

Not sure if I like that. Hell of a good job building it though. |

I like it! The scoops kill me though. I know there is not much that can be done about them, although I have heard rumor of some European aftermarketeers that have made them smaller... |

thank for the compliments. i hate the pods also, but what do you do. i am going to swap the bars out for something else. the cr high bars will not fit in the xb clamps. there will be a few more changes to it also, just some little detail work. thanks shawn |

I admire the effort, but the shape of the pods doesn't flow right to my eye. |

I agree that you did a great job but the pods don't work for me either. Again, nice bike though. On a side note...how loud is that thing? What exhaust is that? |

it looks like a black coated D&D exhaust to me I think with these pods and chin spoiler it would be the lightning I always wanted. can somebody photoshop a lightning tail onto this for me? (Message edited by delta_one on March 19, 2010) |

Painting the seat rails blue was a nice touch. I always liked Erik's "black and blue" theme. |

Even with the pods I think it looks great-like an evil insect about to attack! I'd love to see an xt tail grafted on. |
