1000hrs later, So much hand fab. used the Duc. rear upper plastic for a practical solution to a complex problem. Sub-frame and a lot of the plastics and seats were hand made. The Buell-Ducati junction was the hardest part to make look right. About a million other changes you can't see. I built the rear shock out of a stocker and scrap ohlins parts. Any question about details, call! 262-470-5300   (Message edited by F22raptor on March 31, 2013) | ||

It doesn't look quite right on a Buell. Now 1190RS tail...that'd be sweet. | ||

Looks cool most XB's look a little too bob tailed after the cheese graters demise | ||

I like it post more detailed pictures if you can. | ||

more pics! | ||

Cool, I'm guessing the battery is lying down in the tail, but I imagine you could put one of those little, high zoot batteries anywhere, like maybe the airbox? | ||

I think a 999 race tail would have looked good | ||

The 999 tail has a gaping hole in it were the big flat can was. this pic should help. B.T.W, the tail does way more then just hold the battery I made. I said in the original-post there were a ton of things done you cannot see. This was kinda a applied technology exercise from many other cutting edge industries that just happened to look O.K when done. B-T-W. 50 lbs less then stock is conservative.  | ||

You shaved off 50 lbs.? That in and of itself is amazing, and you made it look good to boot. Great job. | ||

  While the above is ok, I like this much better:  | ||

I like the rear brake setup on this one. Don't like the headlight, looks like on a hard stop it would touch/hit the tire. The yellow one is ok as well, I like the seat rails. | ||

This was not a styling exercise. But a technology test platform. O.C.C makes pretty bikes...Sorry made bikes. This is all hand made, not a transfer of top-shelf parts from other bikes. Those are some awesome rides, Thanks for the photos Dean! | ||

B.T .W....Why do people constantly replace stators when you don't need them? It is odd to used 100yr old technology in a 2013 "cutting-Edge" bike. Let your mind run with that thought and you will begin to understand what is under this skin.... | ||
