looks like a gold mine! you've got a lifetime supply of wear & tear replacement parts (well, almost - starter, cables, primary chain, sprockets, ignition module), a spare carb to experiment with, a spare engine, and the swan-shaped stand makes it easier to work on.

hey, I bet it would be fun to put in a go-kart!

speaking of happy darksiders - here's an 1125CR handlebar with some extra stuff, currently $55 and ending SOON, ebay 140288639845

I'm sure a lot of my fellow Blastards have been drooling over these bars since they first came out - hopefully one of you will get a good deal!

Hey EZ!
I'm back on line!
Looks like a teenager hit a pole in the neighborhood and knocked everyone out for a day.
Anyhow, looking forward to your critique!

I'm working on the updates now.
Have something to you by tonight.

I like it! Really glad it has a piston. Pm me an idea of what I/we need to chip in for patches or decals. Not so sure I'll get the tattoo though.

The original Thor, and we are Thor's Keepers - the P3 - aka the Buell Blast!

By mounting the M2 front end and fitting M2 swing arm extenders on to the Blast swing arm - using the m2 chain conversion kit and your set - though there they matched out the distance so the M2 belt would work. The person saying they are Ninja 250 pieces is in-correct, the disc and belt say differently.

I stand corrected - the other parts are M2 - the wheels, forks, and tires are Ninja 250 pieces - interesting - if we had known that from the beginning the fork-brace research would have been easier - lol - no biggie.

Some people read, and comment off line - guess I'm popular - lol - it is a pretty cool patch idea though!



A sticker that size would look great on the wind fly screen - even the aftermarket ones.

I'd be interested in a decal, maybe several decals.

Any thought of making these in different colors? Like red or yellow?

I like the first design better. Colors and lines are more vivid and I like the Old text. I too would be interested in Patches and Vinyl stickers.

Ok, I've been looking through the treads but i cant find anything bout the M2 stuff on the blast. Is that a way to make the blast have 17 inch tires? I like to hear as much as i can on what has been done or can be done to the blast so I can take ideas and tweak them. Thanks in advance.

Do a Badweb search for '17" wheels'. Thumper forum only and you'll pull up many threads discussing it. It's been done, but its not just a simple wheel swap.

Another note about the Ninja 250...It seems that the Ninja 250 now has 17" wheels, so that increases the possibility of cheap salvage/e-bay and aftermarket wheels that could be fitted to the Blast (with modification). Not that this is the only option, but given the popularity of the 250 and start-up 250 racing classes it could be a cheap option for those wanting to switch to 17's.
Not that I'm a fan of putting Kawi parts on a Blast though...
