And me likey that compliment - brutal. I'm enjoying customizing it almost as much as I like to ride it. The tail mod and paint did more for the look of the bike than anything else I've done to it. I'm really pleased with the way it's looking now. I don't really like the way it looks with my plate and inspection sticker plate hanging off the back of it though. I'll have to think about where else I can mount it. (I'll post pics once I get my little drill booboo repainted.) I was thinking about doing a "R" front end conversion, but right now I'm thinking a Uly windscreen would probably passify me enough to just ride it for awhile and quit dumping all my disposable income into my bike. I'm sure my girl would like it if I stopped saying, "We're grilling in tonight again because I spent all my money on a (type latest Buell bobble here) this month." What are you going to do though? Oh yeah, I'd love to get the rims chromed...see what I mean? |

There is always one more part. Even when you think you are done, there will be one more part. For H-D guys they talk about the last thousand..." I'm almost done with my bike, I figure a thousand ought to cover it" Parts on order, waiting on shipping I will post befores and afters |

Brian your bike definitely has a unique look. I don't think there's another one quite like it here. |

...I've updated the page of my XB9SX just a few minutes ago: new throttle control, new right air scoop, new dashboard, new rotors... and 3% more HP thanks to my Silca black key!

Mauro your upgrades are fabulous. Tell me about your wave rotor. Did it do anything to improve your stopping power or feel, or does it just look good? |

Only a finger, the bike kneels down. Nuff said! The rear Wave rotor is not so impressive. |

Nice Challenger. Didn't your bike look way different last year in the thread like this? Post up the progression of your bike over the last couple years if you can! If I remember correctly you've completely tricked out your bike at least three times now. I posted this in another thread, but here is my progress. I've still got more to do, but it is finally coming together now.

Wile_c, I've always wanted to know if I could scrape that license plate holder on the street doing a wheelie! Looks like it's right at 12 o'clock...looks sweet tho! |

Nope, this is first pic out from that bike here... yes, engine is reworked, heads, cams, pistons &blaablaablaa... paintwork changed from original to this B/W striping because her Roof helmet is in B/W striping btw.. my ride is Ducati 998 (prior to that we both had 12R's)... or depending on mood, we'll swap saddles |
