Author Message   Bcomplete Posted on Wednesday, May 13, 2015 - 06:43 pm:        Heya, I'm new to the forum, but I've been learning from this site for a long time now lol. Here's the pics of my 2000 Buell Blast. I'm going for a ratty café bobber, but I need some help on finding a rear sub frame so I can chop off that ugliness. Either for a solo bobber style, like I have now, or a café racer style seat. Also planning on calling up Mig Baron Customs to get the dragster Z-bars he makes.. I highly recommend his craftsmanship. I also have D-Axis mirrors, a Rich Phillips Leather solo seat, dan's air intake mod and a custom exhaust.   Ezblast Posted on Thursday, May 14, 2015 - 05:10 am:        Works for me!!! Good job! EZ   Forerunner Posted on Thursday, May 14, 2015 - 09:39 am:        Oh damn! How's that straight pipe sound? Lookin' good!   Vicenzajay Posted on Thursday, May 14, 2015 - 10:34 pm:        Such a nice bike - but those dunflops...aargh!!! :-)   Bcomplete Posted on Thursday, May 14, 2015 - 11:43 pm:        hahah thank you guys! More pics soon, I've ordered a few more parts to put on. What tires would you recommend? cause I totally agree, the traction is virtually non existent on those dunlops, and I love to lean into turns hard =P. I'll post a video on you tube or something if you wanna hear the pipes Forerunner. It sounds great for whatever the hell it is lol, I wish I knew. Everything else though I installed, or painted my self. Also not sure if I should break down and buy a Jardine RT-1, seeing as it's underslung, so I can really dig deep on right hand turns too.   Gearheaderiko Posted on Friday, May 15, 2015 - 12:46 am:        If you go with the Jardine, you may end up smacking it on the ground. You could just shorten the down section of that straight pipe and never scrape anywhere!   Bcomplete Posted on Friday, May 15, 2015 - 02:07 am:        That's a good point Gearhead, not only would it perform better on right hand turns, but I bet it would probably sound even more intense, w/o replacing it with a 400$ part =P. but I don't have the tools or the mechanical knowledge to pull that kinda procedure off. Any Harley dealer will destroy you financially for the simplest of task, but where I live, there are no custom motorcycle shops. Just need to take a trip to a straight shop or meet a fabricator =P.   Ezblast Posted on Friday, May 15, 2015 - 04:40 am:        Pirelli Diablo 140/70-16 and 110/70-16 for the guy that likes to lean. Any auto exhaust welder can do the trick.

Welcome to the Dark side! One question Do you have an AF gauge and what is holding your carb onto your manifold? Even a superboot would have trouble with that puppy! EZ   Gearheaderiko Posted on Saturday, June 27, 2015 - 06:46 am:        Definitely looking like the bike the Blast should've been! Looks good! And you kept it belt drive   Ezblast Posted on Sunday, June 28, 2015 - 01:37 am:        Not that many teeth difference - Which belt did you run? EZ   Jmoe515 Posted on Sunday, June 28, 2015 - 04:40 am:        I do have AFR gauge and narrow band O2. The carb has a couple supports on it. 133 tooth belt with 26t front pulley. 76t 1125 rear pulley.   Ezblast Posted on Monday, June 29, 2015 - 02:49 am:        Really cool! EZ   Jmoe515 Posted on Monday, June 29, 2015 - 12:32 pm:        Thanks guys. It serves it's purpose. FUN!   Ezblast Posted on Monday, August 31, 2015 - 12:46 am:        From Romania with Love! https://www.facebook.com/pages/desmoBIBU-Custom-Cycles-/1406786032938429 EZ   Gearheaderiko Posted on Monday, August 31, 2015 - 01:11 am:        Thatsa nice!!! Maybe one day I won't be moving and I'll be able to work on a blast again   Blueblast Posted on Monday, August 31, 2015 - 02:10 am:        Sweet!   Jmoe515 Posted on Thursday, September 24, 2015 - 03:07 pm:          Jmoe515 Posted on Thursday, September 24, 2015 - 03:50 pm:          Ezblast Posted on Wednesday, October 14, 2015 - 03:22 am:        Finally the project is done!!!!! From Romania with love!!!! With more here!!! https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.900753789992344.1073741828.122204024513995&type=3 Very nice! EZ   Andrewg Posted on Saturday, November 21, 2015 - 01:57 pm:        EZ I really like that intake is that custom made on the Romanian one? (Message edited by andrewg on November 21, 2015)   Ezblast Posted on Sunday, November 22, 2015 - 04:43 am:        Yes   Vicenzajay Posted on Tuesday, November 24, 2015 - 08:58 pm:        Someone needs to send a Superboot to Romania....   Ezblast Posted on Wednesday, February 10, 2016 - 02:14 am:        Latest change - flipping/exchanging the lighting mounts - big difference! EZ   Kennyd Posted on Friday, March 11, 2016 - 08:15 am:        New Thumper here! I just bought a 2000 Blast yesterday and have taken it around the block a few times. I've already found so much useful information here so I figured I'd thank you all and share a picture of my bike. I currently live in Northern Virginia in Woodbridge if anyone is nearby.   Kennyd Posted on Friday, March 11, 2016 - 08:17 am:        Photo for above post...   Gearheaderiko Posted on Friday, March 11, 2016 - 10:42 am:        Welcome!   Vicenzajay Posted on Monday, May 02, 2016 - 08:45 pm:        That looks nice and clean...with the right set of tires on it as well. Congrats - nice find. Interestingly colored front fender....
