ok so I'm waiting for just the Force exhaust (coming in tomorrow), the resistance for the LED light blinkers (also arriving tomorrow) and the new rear brake master cylinder (its own was broken and I purchased a used one on ebay, really cheap), then the bike is ready to rock&roll! by the end of this week will be sleeping in my garage and I can't wait!!! I'm starting to love it more than the S1.... maybe, I'm still not sure! :-) ok so here's some new shots before the storm...              | ||

Looks great; what color orange is that? Looks like Hugger orange that Chevy used to use. | ||
| The_italian_job |
which orange you talk about, the frame orange or the plastics? | ||
| Texastechx1 |
very cool adaptaion of the V-rod headlight/fairing... always wondered about that. | ||
| Brinnutz |
Lookin' Sick bro!!! | ||
| Beachbuell |
Very Sweet Indeed! | ||

Italian - At first look I thought both the frame and plastics were the same orange. It looks like the plastics have a gold tint to the orange. The frame looks hugger orange. I always wanted a bike or cool car that color. | ||
| Mcdusa1 |
Cool I like the paint I am looking forward to seeing it finished. | ||
| Limitedx1 |
where and what gauges are you gonna run? looks awesome!!! | ||
| The_italian_job |
Limited, I won't install any gauges. decided to do a stripped down streetfighter style, so no gauges. I anyway won't need to sell my 3 Buells in the future, I've done them for me, they're my little collection, so no need to show the mileage. | ||

Looking good! I can't wait to see the finished product. | ||
| Brinnutz |
What about a Motoscope mini with the handlebar clamp. It's a sick setup and one day I'll buy it... | ||
| Reducati |
Damn, like all your bikes...HOT! | ||
| Skntpig |
Nice oil tank. Did you make that? You won't miss the guages. I took mine off too. | ||
| 186bigtwin |
looks damn good !!!!!!!!!!!!! | ||
| Brinnutz |
Oil tank is from Metmachex, he got it from Al at American Sport Bike. =) | ||
| Skntpig |
I was wondering. I have one for my S1 but it looked like the welds on that one were non existent where the top and sides came together. Nice piece | ||
| Preybird1 |
looking GOOD!! | ||
| Firstbuell |
great project - your best so far! what triples are you using? stock rake & trail? cost? thx | ||
| The_italian_job |
thanks Curt. triples are custom made, were done in Italy. I've had the bottom done for my S1 as well, to pair with the top from Billet to Race. the measurements are the same as the stock. | ||
| Rightpecial |
I seriously doubt you need another "Wow" at this point but I'll give ya one anyway. Can't wait to see it all together. | ||
| Newbuellertoo |
You sir, are an artist! | ||
| Ferrisbuellr |
beautiful bike | ||
| 186bigtwin |
More pics of the finished project !!!!!!!!!! | ||
| Purpony |
looks great! Do you have a part number or style of the renthal bars? Are the fat bars? | ||
| Stevegula |
what rubber is that? | ||
| The_italian_job |
the Renthal bar is this one... http://www.ktmcyclehutt.com/ktm-parts/ktm-parts.ph p?sku=U6951393&category=Handlebars%20Controls&fitm ent=bigbikes-all this are the tires... http://www.avon-tyres.co.uk/motorcycle/azaro-pro-x treme-rain bike will be ready wednesday the most. I'm just waiting for the O2 bung to come, I had to adapt the Force pipe I bought, cause it was for M2 and had no O2 sensor port. so I had to buy one on ebay. tuesday will probably show up, mount the exhaust, close the fuel tank, drill the holes for the CF side panels and the bike is ready to go. stay tuned, by the end of the week I'll post some pictures of the bike completed. I'm glad you guys like it, this project has been the most exciting so far... | ||
| Brinnutz |
Damn man, we could have traded Force pipes, I have a FI one, LOL | ||
| Radioelasais |
ohlins forks and two big brembo brakes would be great on that bike.  | ||
| Eshardball |
Nice job Ed |
