anyone know where the oil tank is on this bike?  | ||

Not installed yet, just like the chain. It isn't a completed bike in that photo. | ||

I like it... Ive been on the verge of deciding if i want to do a chain swap on my bike. Really the only reason would be to "look" different. How immature of me. Hmph.=\ | ||

The outline on the top of that bike looks like a chart mapping the Dow Jones average. A liitle too choppy for me. I am not sure I am digging the spokes wheel. I would think that belongs more on a classic looking bike. All in all it kinda looks like HD chromed out version of somebody who mixed up a bunch of Ural and KTM parts. Oh yeah, I don't think the oil tank is installed either at this point. It's probably somewhere on a workbench with the brake lines and chain | ||

I agree Koz. thats a good way to put it. Assembling a bike with HD and KTM parts. However, mix the ideas around a bit and it would be a killer bike. Say, put some R1 style slim spoke rims on that bike would make it look great.... But those spoke rims belong on this bike for sure. http://img145.imagevenue.com/img.php?image=31553_d sc05726nu7_122_419lo.jpg | ||

if you took that point out of the top of the fuel tank and smoothed it just a bit, it would have a nice line. id ride it. im not a spoke guy, but if you had one for the front that would work with the brake setup id dig it. | ||

I like the look, but am not a fan of mix and match wheel combos. | ||
| Rick_a |
I'm with Ft_bstrd. I hope the wheels are just mocked up. Otherwise, I love it. | ||
| Jramsey |
Dual disc on the front also. | ||

The pic is kinda small, but it looks like the fuel tank is larger than a Manta, (the top of mine is level with the ground, and not as tall). Perhaps the oil tank, if not still on the bench with the chain, may be in the fuel tank. | ||

Def needs spoke wheels on front to complete the look | ||
| Brother_in_buells |
some spoked wheels like the chronos bike from Hillbilly-motors would be cool looking | ||

So Purpony, do tell, where is the oil tank on this bike? | ||
| Purpony |
no idea... lol. Im just loving the seat setup on it and it looks so clean with no oil tank. Like everyone said, probably not installed yet. | ||
| No_rice |
do you have those images in a bigger size? | ||
| Skntpig |
It's going to be interesting to see where the chain drive routes. | ||
| Maru |
The few bikes i have ridden with huge rear tires did not handle well. | ||
| Purpony |
nope, those are the only pics i found.... if you go to customfighers.com and search buell ... there is a post called just buells. Page 4 is where i found it. | ||
| No_rice |
ah, ya some of bikes on there a few times too. | ||
| Beltfedman |
NO MORE INFO ON THIS THING? I wonder if that is a unmodified swing arm with that big of tire in there. i Have the same one.......... | ||
| Purpony |
what do you mean you have the same??? Im planning on running a 190 in my stock swingarm | ||
| Dinuns1 |
If your saying you have the same swingarm ,that wheel will fit in the stock swingarm . but chain will be a bitch to line up , setting up a brake will suck by the way it will have to look like that as far as fender .it can be done but why? | ||

I just like how it brings choppers and sport bikes even close together. |
