are you refering to the forks? if so I think you will have to change the bottom triple clamp. Or another option would be just to powder coat the forks you have.

Well there is no 2008+ XB9R, so what are you looking to convert?

(buellridersww) you're correct, I was trying to look for correct word. It's Fairing as i am talking about. Is there any possible to covert it to the newer version fairing instead of my current 2003 buell xb9r fairing?

is there any link out there where I can find the fairing?

Thanks!

Like Firebolt020283 said, the fairing is the same. The only thing that did change was the color choices, and if you did want to change it is just a matter of getting the different color then spending a few minutes swapping it.

Yea if you are going to change the front fairing on the firebolt it take all of about 4 minutes or so. Take off the mirrors, the blinkers, and the bottom two screws on the wind screen and it is off.

If you look at my bike on my profile it is a 2003 with 05 and 09 body parts on it.
