In '96 I ordered a '94 BUELL CF HAMCAN to put on my Sporty. I traded my bike for an FXD, so my Buell Carbon Fiber Hamcan has been wrapped in a t shirt in my drawer for 21 years. It is mint. Now rare is this part? I almost drilled it to make it into a clock, It still has the Buell tape label in place. That Gold Carbon Fiber looks a lot better than the aftermarket stuff that they're making. I don't need it for my S2, but I could always screw it up somehow, and then I would have the part.

They're around, but definitely uncommon enough for me to say you shouldn't drill holes in it.

How about.... you mail me the hamcan, and in return, I'll mail you a nice clock??

I'm not going to drill it. I'll hang onto it in case someone ever needs it for a restoration, or if I drop a tool on mine. It looks cool now hanging on the wall in the cave.

Is it a greenie? Or is the CF later style black/gray colored?

Are the holes centered, or offset to one end?

If they're centered, and it's a greenie, it's an original S2 piece. If it's standard gray CF with the holes offset to one end, it's a later tuber "race" accessory cover and won't work on an S2.

Definitely would like to see a pic. DEFINITELY don't drill it!
