Will work for carb or FI models. Includes backplate, K&N filter, and carbon fiber cover. My photos are too large to upload. PM me or send e-mail to john.d.garland@gmail.com for photos. It won’t disappoint; of course these are’t new anymore but it’s in really nice condition and these are not one that you see on everyone’s scoot. These were pretty rare in comparison to all of the Force intakes out there. $250.00 Price plus shipping. Will ship international. | ||

Admins please delete this post. I didn’t realize I was sold an intake that was missing the outter Shell. I’m not selling it to someone incomplete. | ||
| Littlebuggles |
John, if it's still got the carbon under shell your price is still reasonable. I ran one like that for many years on my M2 (see pic)  | ||
| Johng_22 |
Affirmative. That’s that it has. Good to know then | ||
| Littlebuggles |
I think I paid a little less for mine, they are ultra rare, and the outer cover had a tendency to come off on their own, but the inner cover cleans up real nice with a few light coats of clear to protect the cf and make it shine. | ||

Lots cheaper here.. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Bartell-s-Carbon-Fiber-In ake-Buell-S1-X1-M2-S2-S3-Sportster/232782534602?ha sh=item3632eb97ca:g:QPgAAOSw4ahbCON3 | ||

Ouch dude. Poor form to bomb his for sale ad like that  | ||
| K12pilot |
Kinda like poor form to advertise it here for DOUBLE THE PRICE !!! | ||
| Shoggin |
I understand that, and I can even commiserate with your opinion. I recently torched a guy who wanted $250 for Traction grips. $250. For grips... But I digress. With shipping a <$100 difference isn't double and IMHO, that's about the high and low of what the rare intake is worth. Besides that, without pics, the exact condition is unknown and may be NOS awesome and worth what he's asking. No matter, something is only worth what someone else is willing to pay.

Chris what are you referring to double the price? I’m asking exactly the same price I paid to Ross where I got the intake. Get the sand out of your clam and stop acting like the little bitch you are (Message edited by Johng_22 on May 28, 2018) | ||

The market isn't far from $250 for NOS Traction Grips, for anyone curious. The new in box stuff gets rarer every year and will only up in value. | ||
| K12pilot |
My point was...he has it listed on eBay for 150 obo & 250 + shipping here. Usually the GOOD guys do it the other way around...JUST SAYIN... | ||

It wasn’t until Ross pointed out, I priced them wrong on here and didn’t even notice. The price was supposed to be $150. However, it doesn’t excuse your totally tactless response. Of course the eBay listing is mine, when did I ever say that it wasn’t? Further substantiates that my asking price was not $250 but I can’t go edit it so not much I can do. In the future if you wish to interact with me, do so with some level of decency. Otherwise go troll somewhere else. (Message edited by johng_22 on May 28, 2018) | ||

I have the most uncommon flooring and I took photos of my parts lying on that floor. Think about that for Just a moment. Of effing course it’s my listing. Why didn’t you just ask! (Message edited by johng_22 on May 28, 2018) | ||

Johnq_22....... are them your parts?? | ||
| Littlebuggles |
John, If you bought it from Ross (in the several months), the picture I posted is of your intake...because it came off the bike I sold him in January. | ||

$250 for grips.. Couldn't care less if they are made from the lungs of the ancient water beast that only rises up upon the 3rd full moon of the leap year. Unless you own a Buell museum, $250 for grips is dumb.  | ||
| Littlebuggles |
Then don't buy them Shoggin. He either sells them at his asking price, or learns the market won't support it through trial and error. Pooping all over this specific Bartels air cleaner for sale thread is bad form bud. Badweb has long had the tradition of treating folks as polite friends, since many of us attend get-togethers over the years, and ride with or provide technical support to one another. He neither asked if it was a good price, nor attempted to force you to buy them. Why are you so heated about it??? If you have a disagreement, please address it offline. | ||

>>>Unless you own a Buell museum, $250 for grips is dumb. I agree . . . . wait till your wife spends more than the cost of the house on a Porsche and then you'll know what "really dumb" is. And then the pain of finding out you could have just bought a recreation for less. I, personally, can't tell one set of grips from another . . . . but the Traction grips have always been held in highest esteem. . . they are really good.

No . . .wait. . .wait . . . REALLY DUMB is what I did last week . . . had an MGA in for annual service and forgot to tell the mechanic it had been converted to Silicon Brake Fluid. Now . . . .THAT was REALLY DUMB. Yep . . . paying through the nose . . .but the car comes back to the barn Friday. Oh . . . how I wish I'd just bought these grips and called it a day. :-) | ||

Littlebuggies: "Pooping all over this specific Bartels air cleaner for sale thread is bad form bud. Badweb has long had the tradition of treating folks as polite friends, since many of us attend get-togethers over the years, and ride with or provide technical support to one another. " Re-read my posts, bud. I'm not pooping. In fact, I'm defending "this specific Bartels air cleaner for sale thread". The guy who was financing his kids college tuition by selling grips, wasn't even on this forum. I'm sure you can still buy them if you want. I won't get in your way. | ||

Dumb is: Riding your restored CZ and forgetting the air filter is still sitting on the bench. Grips r good though | ||

No worries at all Littlebuggies, I completely agree that us Buellers are a great, helpful bunch (and darn good looking too!)  |
