Nice. Did you make the bracket yourself or can it be bought somewhere?
And speaking of pink walls. My wife painted our master bathroom pink when we move in. Its now a few years later and i told her im changing the color. She said fine as long as it looks nice. (This was a couple of months ago) So i went to home depot and bought some blood red paint and did the entire bathroom including the trim. She flipped out. What she didn't know is that i also bought a few cases of stone tile hehe. So after a week of a bloody red bathroom i tiled it. And she loves it. It was fun to make her think we were going to have an ugly bathroom. |

Actually peach presents a very warm and inviting atmosphere.....forget it, I'm not going into interior decorating here....
anyway, the Firebolt license plate bracket is part number M0755.02A8
You will have to bend it a little to make it fit (where the turn signal brackets meet the undertail), and I'm in the process of fabricating a plastic cover for the small open space on the undertail that is left from the stock fuggly contraption. Nothing better to do right now here in Northern Siberia...I mean Ohio. |

"I still hate him for having one - regardless of his wall color!"
Steve, I've been seeing a pattern here...if you're not going to buy one have you considered seeing a therapist?
Naaa, you'll end up buying one...you've got the same disease I have, I just gave up early on trying to resist...it's futile! |

yea al..sounds you are doing what I would want to do. a different seat, lower pegs and higher bars. will need to sit on yours and see how it fits, or wait till the next model of the line comes out. bars too low, pegs too high for me. I sat on it at the california show. not very comfortable and my wife said I didn't look comfortable on it. REX |

Buellrcr - I believe Buell already has one. The picture of Shawn Higbee in the tire test thread might have it on the bike. I can't quite tell.
Not that Al couldn't make one.  I just assume he would rather concentrate on things that aren't available elsewhere.

Has anybody noticed that the Buell website has different airbox covers for the 1125? |

Could well be and that's one of the difficulties with having to produce photo and media bikes 6 months prior to completion of a project.
The classic "catalog vs. what shipped" was the 1996 S1 on the cover of Cycle World and the 1997 M2 brochure.

Buell racing DOES have the reverse pattern kit. Unfortunately, it's not just a simple flip of the arm like the XB series.
Steve, I've been seeing a pattern here...if you're not going to buy one have you considered seeing a therapist?
uhhh... actually the voices have told me not to see the therapist. I always listen to what they tell me to do! |

The XB Firebolt touring seat(s) will fit the 1125r |

1125r has a sealed airbox with the only inlet being the ram-air inlet.
Some of the early pics showed the XB airbox cover with the open area near the fuell fill. Production units do not have this.
I took the air box cover and filter off, and opened the throttle bodies to peer down those huge pipes - wow! You can see the complete intake tract including both intake valves. Nice port work - no restriction here!

I wonder why they have it listed that those airbox covers will work for the 1125 |

Airbox cosmetic covers are interchangeable, not the functional cover underneath. |

This is where i got my touring seat. And its the only way my wife will ride with me. She hated sitting on the pancake. After 6 hours or so she would start complaining.

My latest mod -
I put a piece of black plastic over the wiring mess and added a DashBuell.
Most of the day Saturday was picking up a very old GE Atomic Hydrogen Welding Torch from a retired aircraft machinist.
I can't wait to get it hooked up and start playing with it.
He says with some practice I can weld anything from tin-cans to frame members, out of almost any metal.
It has the weirdest hand-piece I've ever seen.
