Hi cool thank you very much do you still use the original M2 speedo or did you switch to an S3 dashboard also? I have an early M2 so perhaps somebody has done this conversion to an early M2 also? |

To my knowledge yes, the previous owner had only changed the front fairing. I have more pics of how it is actually mounted that i can email. This is a 2000 m2 that i have with an s3 fairing. |

They look great, as a "M3". Would have been a great factory option or after sale factory accessory Kit. Looking for a front fairing, came across airtech-streamlining.com/buell/S21995-96.htm but they only have the "S2" fairing. Is the front fairing the same, between the S2 and the S3? |

i think the M3 name is nice. I dont see much of a difference between the front fairing on s2 and s3t if anything very minimal, but that is only my observation |

The M2-S3 combo works very well for me aesthetically speaking. I met a guy at our local gathering last year who had converted one as well. Said he loved it. Can you tell which one it is? |

the first red one would be my guess at the m2. i noticed only cuz the front tire cover isn't matching the rest |

Darn KC, I thought you were going to say those are all yours! Thats a nice-looking group I liked the swoop of the M2 tail better than the droop of the S3. Maybe easier to adapt the M2 tail to an S3 bike! |

Rex! I love it! Lots of nice touches, perimeter brake on a marchesini wheel, the shiny helmholtz, black on black with black and black. Really nice! |

Hi Rex your bike was the one I had in mind when I asked about pictures. I see you`ve got brackets for fairing bags, are these from an S3 also ? Beautiful seat, unfortunately my M2 came without any seat so maybe you have the standard 97/98 Seat for sale? Or anybody else? Thanks for help |

If anyone has a fairing to sell keep me in mind. Dave Tooch has been super helpful with a few pics of his beauty. I'm either gonna add the S fairing or trim down my tail section, depends on what shows up |

Rex, you operate the brake lever only with your pinky? That's some stopping power. Does that upper heat shield make any differance? I always have the issue with my leg and headers, was looking for a shield like that. But only if it would work, not just estatic wise. |
