I have seen several bikes running this lower but I am still unable to find a company that makes it. Anyway I just purchased my 08 with 400 miles and it has the add on buell fairings but as I said before I'm just a big fan of the lower that mates up to the stock ducts. Figured I could sell these and pick up the lower. Any info would greatly be appreciated, the sooner I have one the sooner I can start fabricating up a 08-10 cbr1000rr taylormade style exhaust Thanks ! |

catalyst racing composites also makes one that mounts up and looks good with the stock pods. Someone on here had that and it looked good. |

Generally no. You will need to customize them. |

Unless you're just going for looks and not fluid retaining capacity. The pan pictured above would likely not pass tech inspection. |

Joe (Tougelabs), check the picture in my profile for what a Catalyst Composites full fairing looks like. You do have to make a cutout for the kickstand, stock muffler, make mounts and paint but its relatively inexpensive at about $230.00. I also used Dzus connectors for easy removal to do maintenance. Fiberglass also so its tough and very light. Bob |

> The pan pictured above would likely not pass tech inspection. That's my thought, too. The Buell holds 3 quarts of oil and at least that much coolant. I bet that pan wouldn't... |

"Nobody makes a pan that it is kick stand compatible?" The FBW lower is kick stand compatible, but may or may not pass tech. Will post photos this evening when I get home. JM |

I like how it covers up the pods and makes it one continuous one from top to bottom. I like the belly pans, since they cover up the extra space the custome exhausts do not fill up. |

REX You can - take a picture of your CR, open Photoshop, add on the fairing from a (I think GSXR1000), photoshop a XB12 back end on and away you go.... just like that one. Of course you'll be disappointed when you go out in the garage and see it's not real... |

How much are you asking for the Buell lowers? Are you able/willing to ship to Wisconsin? |

I'm willing to drive them to you if the price is right shipping is no problem. I posted up a link in the classifieds section with contact info and asking price. |
