Need a part for my bike!!!!

Does anyone know where I can get the wind deflector for my Red/Burnt Orange '03 Blast? I've looked on a number of sites, including Ebay, without any luck. I would appreciate any help available.

Order it from either your local dealer or from Davies a Dealer/vendor here on the BADWEB and get a 10% discount - Appleton HD/Buell - is his - see the sponsor section of the Badweb Topics.

Thanks Ez! I'm glad that I found a place to ask questions to Buell owners. I know a little about bikes, but it's always nice to have other riders as resources. Thanks again.

Yay. I'm legal. Took my MSF tests today, 98% written and 100% riding. Need to keep working on my quick stops, I like to lock up the rear pretty hard. But I'm out to tear up the road now finally.

Dropped my bike off for the 7500 mile service and saw an `07 blast that just got delivered.

New color is WHITE with blue graphics... IT was hot.

A little trivia as I go even deeper into the Dark side of Buelldom - The RR had 16" wheels as well. Interesting....

Not all that long ago. My CBR has a 16" front. Turns quicker, but is less stable. They made them that way until maybe '98?

Front fender has an arrow on it!

That White Blast has a different exhaust on it than the stock one.
I think you will want to put your fender on in the correct direction as they only are supposed to go on one way......just like tires, they will fit on either way but if you put it on the wrong way it will bring lots of bad MoJo

You're kidding right?!
I've put mine on both ways depending on where the scratches were or what part of the bike I wanted to protect more.

I pretty sure mine has the long side to the front. I think that looks better... :shrug:

For anyone reading this that might not know, the front fender can go either way, but it does have an arrow pointing towards front.

But only one way is correct,
Any other fitment will screw up the balance of the universe

Has anyone transplanted a Blast motor into anything besides a Buell tube frame (not counting flat track chassis)?

For anyone that's got a parts manual handy - can you look up the size & thread pitch of the nuts that hold on the front & rear turn signals?

Also, is their some sort of lock washer in there?

Thanks in advance.

rear signal: M10 jam/hex thin
front: M8 jam/hex thin
8mm & 10 mm star lock washers

Doesnt say the thread pitch just that they're metric.

I'd kinda like to see what you get for $3000. Not a bad price if its all inclusive (needs nothing).
Thats pics kinda ugly though.
