I think it's about time to repaint my bike so I thought if anybody wants to buy my painted plastics I'd give it a shot before I start sanding. I'm asking $500+your plastics in good condition. I know they're not for everybody so if you don't like them...move on, you're not my target customer. I get lots of compliments on the paint job above what I already get on the bike itself (as you all know.) Pics & explanations of imperfections below. Thanks.

Chip in left side of airbox.



Chip in front fairing. Easily covered by headlight bezels.



Seat cowl rubbed the tail section.

Dont get me wrong I really like the paint.

I was obviously wrong anyways after the last two posts thats easy to see.

Zatco81 did you try posting it in any of the other buell website forums out their it would help you get more eyes on it.

I don't think anybody here is naive enough to believe that this is the only Buell forum out there---just the best.

Thanks for the links. I'm sure that you guys don't mind that I posted here. Seems like the thing to do for model specific parts. Apparently it was a good idea since I got some replies here but not in the classifieds. Nice to know people are looking.

Oh yeah...$400==any takers?

Also, I was thinking and if somebody is interested but afraid the plastics won't look good with your wheels I would be willing to trade wheels also. Just a thought.

I painted them myself. I can't really even put a price on the materials as I used some stuff I had laying around the garage that I'd had for so long I don't remember what I paid for it.

Apparently they don't have to. Why not market my product to my target audience? I got zero replies in the classifieds.

Because you aren't a sponsor of the forum as far as I can tell.

So why aren't you all over the guys that are looking for parts? Shouldn't they also be on the classifieds board instead of posting here?

Now this is in the archives aka Badweb Black hole, so no one will probably ever see this and since some people are way overly sensitive about what's posted on the XBoard I won't repost. Anyway, I really don't want to paint over this. I thought it was a cool idea and it turned out pretty nice, so I'd like for it to stick around on someone's bike. Make an offer and be prepared to pay for shipping. I'll also meet for the swap if it's a reasonable distance.
