Sweet green. I wanted that color tripple back in the late 90's, just didn't have the $$$ but if I was buying one today I'd still get the green, good job man, looks great! What was your bike color before? Have a black xb9s with a cowl and same mirrors, just curious. Oh and whats that pipe you have under it? | ||
| Misato |
it was black. the pipe is a force. www.xb9s.com | ||

| Misato |
yeah, I'm getting my g/f to show hers in the reflection on the frame... as for the bike, I have too many parts off polishing to put it all back together.. soon.  | ||

| Misato |
s | ||
| 420at145mph |
ya noticed it hanging right after i posted u should switch to n R i personally think they look 100% better than the S fairing | ||

Streetfighters don't wear no stinkin' fairing! | ||
| Misato |
yeah. wait till I get the LSL headlights.  | ||
| Dj_rider |
howd ya get the frame so shiney | ||
| Misato |
put it this way, my arms still hurt from wet sanding. I had it polished and thought it still wasn't good enough(used a DA for some of it 600 and 1000). SO, I went back down to 400,600,800,1000,1500 (wet by hand) then re-buffed and polished. which, btw, I got a 3" air buffer that works PERFECT.. its nice. used it to buff the paint out too. | ||

Cool paint! Thanks for the order. Ride to the edge! Dave daves@h-dappleton.com | ||
| Dj_rider |
sweet, when do u have time to come up to pittsburgh pa and do mine LoL...by the way the bike looks sharp! | ||
| Boulderbiker |
Tim, now ya gotta get that swingarm on there! Looks good, not my taste, but I can definitely appreciate it. | ||
| Misato |
daves, thank you! yeah, maybe this weekend. I'm waiting for 2 other parts at the chromer.. cant put it back together until I get them.. 1-2 more weeks | ||
| Pghrider |

That tuber is one bad motha! I like the twin light set up. Where did he get those bar end mirrors? The look oval instead of round like the CRG's. (or are they CRG's and the angle is foolin' me...)Did you help the other XB cut up his cheese grater? I'll seriously send you some $ and my grater in exchange for yours or you can cut mine up. The factory should have done them that way! | ||
| Misato |
you can do it.. its really easy. its 'her' xb. I think they are from a bike shop (the pedal kind)  | ||
| 420at145mph |
so how did u get a pc3? i been told they dont make em for 03 models what fuel map u use if ur using the 02 pc3? anyone tryed the techlusion box? | ||
| Misato |
it works fine.. its for a 'x1' tho. doesn't matter cause it works on the xb. I got a map from a guy that had it custom made. Then I had my own custom made, which made +2hp over his. but it ran good with his map. I have the maps available for d/l | ||
| 420at145mph |
so the 2002 firebolt pc3 WILL work on a 03? and id just need a map for an X1 or a custom map? | ||
| Misato |
no, the PCIII is for a X1 I didn't think they ever made a pc for the XB's. I have a map for a XB with force pipes. 2 of them, that work good. I took it to a sport bike race shop that tunes PC's. | ||
| Tucsonxb9s |
Sorry...her XB is tough too! Dang, wish my wife wanted to ride! I'd hand her over my XB and get me an ole S1! I tried the bike shop mirrors..not like those...and had pretty good success. I just changed to moto-x type bars so they are a little wider with just enough bar sticking out to mount some CRG's. I think I'll order some today. |
