Daves, Just received my plastics last night, Looks great, have one issue though. I called and left you a message at your work(I know your off on Thursday) so don't worry about it today. It's not that crucial. The transformation will start early next week. While I'm in Az, headed that way after work today. Ski | ||

Can't beat Black...  | ||

Very Nice Gonen60, Did you go with the 9R fairing mount on that? Did it bolt right up to the frame? Ski | ||
| Gonen60 |
yes, i have the magnisium XB9R fairing bracket. bolted right up. | ||

Cool, Thanks, If my wife wants the 9S Low, that will make it real easy to hook her up with my white fairing, I already have the extra mount. Might still convert her Blast into a FireBlast....LOL, That will become our son's bike when they start riding. | ||

Just took some pictures, will be posting them tonight when I get home, if they turn out ok. | ||

what did the plastics cost you? I want to get another set to custom paint. | ||
| Xb9rski |
Got a good deal on ebay for the airbox cover(came from a crashed 9S with a whole box of parts. The rest of the plastics I ordered through Davesand it came to $498.00 | ||
| Fst_tyms |
not bad. Glendale quoted me almost $1000 I found a set on e-bay a while back for 150. Damn - I should have bought them. | ||
| Xb9rski |
    Sorry not the greatest digital camera, but you get the ideal, Only a couple more trim items to go, | ||
| Fst_tyms |
Thats looks good! I like it! | ||
| Xb9rski |
Thanks, Someone did a photo-shop of one with red that looked real nice to, thought about going with red, but am partial to black. | ||

Xb9rski Was that a lighting converted to a firebolt? If so, how hard was the subframe conversion on the rear. If Im not mistaken, that looks like the tail end of a XB9R. Thanks, Phil | ||

Austin, It's always been a 9R Ski | ||
| Austinrider |
Okay, some Im confused What did you change? Oh wait, silver colored wheels. You made your XB9R into a black model which was only available in 04. What color was it originally. Whatcha doing with the old plastics? | ||
| Rokoneer |
The 9R has never been available as a black model, but the 12R is available in black. The only colors the 9R's have come from the factory in are blue and white. Xb9rski switched out his bodywork for the black bodywork from a 9R. You can tell a 9R from a 12R by the frame color. 9's have silver frames and 12's have black frames. I have a 9R that has the red bodywork from a 12R on it............. | ||

You see the new color for '05?  | ||
| Fst_tyms |
Or this one?  | ||
| Fst_tyms |
personally I like the silver/grey one! | ||
| Slowby |
 i want the pink one | ||
| Xb9rski |
Mine was white with Orange letters, Will probably list my white plastics on ebay soon. The wife said she'll take the pink one. |
