Author Message   Johnboy777 Posted on Tuesday, October 18, 2011 - 05:34 pm:        Did Buell change the front fender color from gray to black somewhere between 2006 and 2010? I nicked the front fender in the garage. The part for the 'Lower Left Front Fender' has been superseded to: M0024.1AKMBE at $70 My question - the description states its 'Body Black' - but mine appears gray. My bike is a 2007 XB12X - did Buell change the front fender color from gray to black? And then change the part number with a superseded one? Thanks ...

I've got both colors on mine.   Wesman Posted on Tuesday, October 18, 2011 - 06:59 pm:        Dude.... just slice the nose off the beak and call it a chopper   Chrisrogers3 Posted on Tuesday, October 18, 2011 - 09:40 pm:        Yes in 2010 the fender changed to black.   Hooper Posted on Wednesday, October 19, 2011 - 10:35 am:        The fastest of all front fenders, of course.   Johnboy777 Posted on Wednesday, October 19, 2011 - 11:23 am:        thanks for the info - I think I'll run with the XT front fender in black at $56. I imagine all of the hardware fits the new fender. .   Pons Posted on Wednesday, October 19, 2011 - 05:44 pm:        I have a black XT fender that was on my '08 XB when I bought it. Two of the bolt holes (in the fender) are a little warped (from the heat of drilling). I had to drill out the screws because the PO used RED thread lock on them and I couldn't get them off. It will work OK with metal washers I'm sure. I'll let you have it for cost of shipping to your house (send $ via PayPal) If it doesn't work, well it's still cheap.   Portero72 Posted on Wednesday, October 19, 2011 - 09:58 pm:        'the front fender looks blacker' 'It's like, how much more black could this be? and the answer is none. None more black.' Spinal Tap? Anyone? Bueller???   Hooper Posted on Thursday, October 20, 2011 - 10:16 am:        "Well I think it looks like death."   Pons Posted on Thursday, October 27, 2011 - 09:00 pm:        My offer is still open on the black XT fender if your interested.   Ratbuell Posted on Thursday, October 27, 2011 - 09:22 pm:        well....eleven is....well, it's ONE MORE, isn't it? Now don't touch that one. Nope. Don't even look at it. Having worked for years in The Industry...it is just plain FRIGHTENING how accurate that movie is. Back on topic...the handguards also changed color   Rodclement Posted on Thursday, October 27, 2011 - 10:42 pm:        ...it's one louder... Rod   Portero72 Posted on Thursday, October 27, 2011 - 11:12 pm:        'These go to eleven...' Hear ya loud and clear, Ratbuell. As a former musician, it really is scary how close to real life that movie is. Hijack over, I promise.
