Thanks for bringing out my bike's distinct lack of carbon fiber...

I bathed mine too. Also got rid of the Lightning logo on the windscreen as it was starting to come off anyway.



I finished up the tail chop and ditched the LEDs. You can read my plate now. Please, no stalkers.

Well I havnt thoroughly washed mine recently but I did put a new coat of paint on the tank and rear section. It was gloss black before and my Buell tank stickers were bubbling up. I used some flat black and made my own Buell stencil with MS paint.

Not too shabby!

Johnny, your bike is EXACTLY what I think a Buell should look like. Very nice!

YEP! The carbon fiber front fender is from American Sportbike and all the other custom made pieces in the pics (and more) are from Black Sunshine's bike. I love me some carbon fiber!

Yes, $11 mountain-bike bar-end on the left side. Had to modify the handguard slightly to get it to work.

Little better picture of the mirror. I have since filed and smoothed the cut out better.




sorry for the hijack, but my bike is clean in this pic: ).

Thanks man, you're making me feel much better. I don't do much interesting riding off the track, the bike just gets dirty over time and... I'm just LAZY !!

(thought it is kinda nifty seeing what others are doing with their machines)
