Ed,
How do you like the "Joker" bar end mirrors on your S1?
I was thinking of getting them. |

Steve,
I love them.
they're a bit pricey but they definitely are the best.
no vibrations, very functional, I love them!
get them, even though I like them better for clip ons than for a classic handlebar.... |

Thanks for your input!
Do you plan on getting out of Fla. for Homecoming next year? Trailer your bike if needed. We'd love to see them! |

I'd really love to come!
we'll see what I can do with work, the problem would be drive up there.
I don't have a trailer and pay to bring all my bikes there would be such a big cost...
if you know of someone who will go from Florid, keep me posted. if there's space for at least one of my bikes, it'd be great for me to come!!! :-) |

The bikes are looking very, very cool.
The S1 looks very striking in white, and the V-Rod headlight looks extremely cool. I'm looking forward to seeing the new paint scheme 
When did you get the X1!?!
cheers,

thanks Chili...
the X1 is the new add into my garage, even though I bought it in March, but it took me quite some time to get it as is now cause I wanted to find the right deals on what I needed for that project. most of the parts comes from eBay, tail section and triple come from Italy and were custom made, it took like 4 months to get them done and shipped here in the US.
now my S1 is going back into the shop for the last update before Daytona next March. big project for her!!!
can't wait to have it finished, then I'd say my bikes are all done! |

I've seen all the bikes in person and have even had the pleasure of riding with Edoardo. That X1 is sick and pictures do not do it any justice-the metallic candy orange is simply amazing,and those tires had me drooling. I can't wait to see what is in store for the S1-I liked it with the flames. The XB just has everyone in awe everytime he shows up with it at the local meets. One time he showed up when Warren Lane(Billy Lane's brother) was there with one of his custom chops(a very nice one I might add) and there was a larger gathering around the XB.
Edoardo, I know someone local who does excellent photos- http://camerephotography.com/index.htm
He is a great guy and thats his blue SS/RS Camaro. I hang with him and a local car club and he's even taken amazing photos of my girlfriends CaymanS
If weather clears for Wed we are thinkin about a ride-you interested? |

X1Buellman,
unfortunately it is not possible to order those tails since it was a special order made for me and 4 other Italian fellows.
it is anyway the exact copy of the RRC, sold from speed of color in Germany.
the only difference is that the original one costs well over 1000 euros, mine costs 550 finished with seat included.
same story with the triple tree, it was custom made in Italy from a craftsman, for 5 of us. I got the complete one for my X1 and just the bottom for my S1 which I'm installing now. one complete tree was about 550 euros, more or less.
but they won't be making anymore of those, they did them just for us.
as for the Renthal bars, those are the twin wall for KTM, you can find them here...

hope it could help, at least for the bar. |
