I know this has been done before, but here is my interpretation. I finished it last night and rode to work today. I'm extremely satisfied. For those of you who have been calling for a new sport touring machine, whaddya think? Cheers, Bob    | ||

Wow! Well done, sir! | ||

Nice work  | ||

Looks good! I have two questions for you. Did you put the 1"drop foot rest on and what exhaust system is that? | ||
| Carbonfibrebob |
Pegs are Uly pieces. The can is a CES Rinehart that I picked up used. I know little about it or it's availability, but it was included in Al's 1125 exhaust shootout. Bob | ||

Saw the bike yesterday at our annual club (watch Daytona 200) party. Bob did a fantastic job on the conversion. Looks like it came from the Buell factory that way. I would buy one like this from Buell, in a heartbeat. JC | ||

Looks great Bob, very clean integration of factory and aftermarket parts. Being in a mountain state I always take note of other rider's hand guard/heated grip set-ups. How's that pipe for volume/tone, not too loud for touring? -Mike | ||

Thanks Mike. As delivered, I felt it was way too loud and would attract the wrong kind of attention, if you know what I mean. I have altered two Barkers 1" baffles and have them in place. Much quieter but I may change inlet size a touch for a little more noise abatement, or I may leave well enough alone, for now, and see what my riding buddies think. Bob | ||

As far as I know, that is the only one (the pipe) ever made in that design. | ||
| Geedee |
Dean, what might those tabs be just down inside the twin exits on that CES? | ||
| Carbonfibrebob |
Geedee, If you are speaking of the pieces down in the tubes, those are the spark arresting screens on the Barkers 1" baffles that I altered to fit. Bob | ||

looks great Bob, i am sure it was a fun project, how's she handle 2 up? | ||
| Carbonfibrebob |
Hi Lee, I don't have an answer yet about 2up. I only finished it last week and Diane hasn't been on the back with me yet. Bob | ||
| Sleez |
we may have to come out this summer for a ride!!! | ||
| Geedee |
"those are the spark arresting screens..." Thank you Bob. | ||
| Cityxslicker |

Sounds good Lee. Stay in touch. Bob | ||

I like yours better than mine!   But then they all fit their special need in the biking World. Nice looking work. | ||

Vern,is that a Uly Lite? Tastes great less filling? | ||
| Etennuly |
Blastulys.....for those moments when a Blast would do if it had the utility of a Uly. |
