Hey, that's my tail!

Great job. It looks better on your bike!

Just wondering where you ended up loctaing the fuse box, is it just to the front of the battery and the ECM did you located that just where the tool /lugage area is on the firebolt... JUst did one myself and found the fuse box was abit tricky to locate... Did the ya stand the box up and the wires coming out underneath or did ya lay the box on the side with wires facing the battery..A Picture or two wd. be Great???

Seating position is great, I think it is more comfortable than the S, but will still get the custom or corbin seat.

Wife loves it.

Fuse box is located to the rear of the battery with the wires facing out toward the suspension adjustor (I dont know what that is called) I will hopefully have some pics posted this weekend. I will be stripping it down just to double check everything and will take pics then.

I am about to finish my s to r conversion. Did you have to use a firebolt subframe? Pictures of the process would be great!

Hey Buellicrat, yes he used a firebolt subframe. In fact, he used mine.

"you going to some the other half of your conversion?"

Do you mean "show the other half?" If so, yes I will be posting pics of the other half of the process as soon as I get it from Teufelhunden282.

I posted in the "wanted" section... but willing to sort of spam you converts.

Anyone who has done the S to R switch, want to get rid of your complete S tails... I have $300 in my paypal account, and also can throw in a set of R saddlebags and firebolt branded tail bag.

please?

anyone??
