Daves,
Just received my plastics last night, Looks great, have one issue though. I called and left you a message at your work(I know your off on Thursday) so don't worry about it today. It's not that crucial. The transformation will start early next week. While I'm in Az, headed that way after work today.

Very Nice Gonen60, Did you go with the 9R fairing mount on that? Did it bolt right up to the frame?

Cool, Thanks, If my wife wants the 9S Low, that will make it real easy to hook her up with my white fairing, I already have the extra mount. Might still convert her Blast into a FireBlast....LOL, That will become our son's bike when they start riding.

Was that a lighting converted to a firebolt?
If so, how hard was the subframe conversion on the rear. If Im not mistaken, that looks like the tail end of a XB9R.

Thanks,
Phil

Okay, some Im confused
What did you change?
Oh wait, silver colored wheels.
You made your XB9R into a black model which was only available in 04.

What color was it originally. Whatcha doing with the old plastics?

The 9R has never been available as a black model, but the 12R is available in black. The only colors the 9R's have come from the factory in are blue and white. Xb9rski switched out his bodywork for the black bodywork from a 9R. You can tell a 9R from a 12R by the frame color. 9's have silver frames and 12's have black frames.

I have a 9R that has the red bodywork from a 12R on it.............
