notice the powder coated tail section, fender eliminator, new blinkers, and pulled off the inner fender on the rear tire. Also put a racekit on it!

Wow!! that looks sweet. How much did it cost you to get that tail section powder coated? I have been thinking about doing the same thing.

I didnt pay anything for a powder coating, A good friend was getting a bunch of stuff done and I threw that in the mix and bought him a case a beer! Gonna do the swingarm next, just trying to find the right deal on a used one.

Fender elimation solutions are in Old School Buell.

Like the way the black tail blends with the rest of the bike.
Top job mate.

I decieded to get the fender eliminator from www.americansportbike.com, it was expenisive, but very light and very strong. Installing it was easy too.

Very stealth, I like!

If it hadn't been for the deal I got on my XB. I'd be an X-1 owner!

just a word of caution. that rear inner fender is there for a reason... your oil sack is right above the rear tire.. I did the same thing you did, powdercoated the tail and swingarm, and i was gonna ditch the inner fender too. but a wise bueller warned me of the "What if" factor w/ that oil sack, mixing w/ the rear tire at 80 MPH. just FYI,

By the way, looks awesome..

HOLY CRAP!!! there is the "What if" factor in real life situation... Dang Tripper, that would have been bad if that sheild wouldn't have been there.
