I wanted to know if anyone is using the American Sport Bikes Carbon Fiber XB front fender, extended length rear hugger/fender, and the ram air intake and what you think of it.

I have the headlight insets on my bike. I have also been to American Sport Bike personally and hands-on inspected a lot of other parts. They all seem to be as high (if not higher) quality as anything I've seen. Al is an honest businessman, you can't go wrong dealing with them.

I have a number of their Carbon Fiber pieces but not the items you specifically mentioned. I do have the rear hugger (not the extended one). I can say without hesitation that the quality is top notch. As Dana and Pwnzor mentioned, Al is a great guy and is always ready to answer any questions you may have.

I have the ram air intake on my 12S, it was pricy, but worth it.

I have the fiberglass seat cowl, not carbon, but I know that Al spent a lot of time developing the part, and would not release it until it met his very high standards.
First Class operation all the way.

I have their cf extended rear hugger. It is one of my favorite upgrades to the bike. Very high quality to boot. Check my profile to see the side shot with it installed.

I don't tend to buy Carbon Fiber stuff but do understand what is good and bad as far as the manufacturing processes. I have seen other bikes with stuff bought from American Sport Bike and it is extremely well built as well as looking good.

I must say that Al has always taken the time to answer my questions during an order. He really cares, makes the effort to learn his products, and I can tell that quality is important to him (as it is to me). He is straight forward, honest, and says things like they are.

Hey Al, your cronies have me sold so if you want to help me out with a multi-piece purchase I think I'm willing to drop some coin.

Jasonxb12s - that looks sick!

Thanks for the good words, folks.

Joshua, gimme a call next week at 760-727-2333 or hit me with an email to sales-at-americansportbike-dot-com.

Hmm, we have been a bit lax on the package candy of late. Our son usually packs the candy in the little thank you bags, and he hasn't been at work much recently. Gotta fix that.

No girls in T-shirts will be sent any time soon, however, we are all out of stock on those. Sorry Ed. : )

Al
