Ara-ifnya don't mind me asking, what you got going on with the exhaust? Is it a trojan styled peice where it exits at the front?

didn't know they were production pieces nice! Always thought the extra length would help with the noise without killing the note. Is that true?

I can remember when I hadn't had my bike a whole year. Mine is one of the first year 9S's. Bads1 asked, "Why hasn't anyone customized their XB?"
There were maybe 20 XB's on the BadWeB then, if that many. Most of them XB9R's because the 9S had just come out.
Things have changed a lot in four years hasn't it Dana?

Glitch,

Sure has changed since the XB came out. One thing about the BUELL no matter what model Buell it is...you don't get bored of looking at them.

I've been on badweb for about four years now, and the increased numbers have made the pics/mod postings my favorite thing to look at on the web. Just way cool what folks are doing with their bikes...

headlight is acerbis cyclops black without the white number plate sticker(makes it look like a flyscreen)

Ron

Where did you buy your Beringers from?

How do plan to setup a hydraulic clutch?
I`ve been thinking about doing the same for some time.

damn, Ron, looks so badass. did you steal my Photoshop files? hahaa ;) love it!!

did you customize the seat foam or is that a custom Corbin? i hate all the seat shapes (too rounded) but yours looks just right out back. I've PS'd a few cuts but haven't proceeded with anything yet.

great werk, man. best looking XB i've ever seen. more pics!

Thanks.
