can we put the 1125 scoops on our xb12r?

[brisbon]

just curious they have been growing on me

 

[Mike Van V]

Sure...but what are they gonna do for you?

A coupla brackets, a little welding..no problem.

It'd be more practical to just buy an R or CR.

I like the looks as well I think it would be cool to modify them into airscoops

 

[swb1125r]

shouldn't need to really weld anything just buy a 1125r front fairing stay.... but the 1125 front on it and bolt the fairings on... really ain't much holding them on...

 

[browland]

hmm they aren't attached to the radiators ?

 

[Baal]

Well, I gotta say that's a question I never expected to hear asked. To each his own, eh?

I want to put a 10ft dune buggy flag on the back of mine. That way you can see me if I was on the other side of a dune.

ARE YOU SERIOUS ?! I though most that had the 1125 wanted them OFF! The pods aren't so bad with a FULL fairing. Bleh

 

[brisbon]

Lol what a response i only got flamed twice. I guess i set myself apart from other peoples tastes, maybe i dont want to be just like all you guys?

 

[browland]

I always thought they made the bike look more muscular. Like em better on the cr over the r... I think they would look tits with the new front end Im fabing

Hey swb1125 -

You haven't looked at your bike very close...?
The pod/radiator brackets (stays)....are bolted to the frame AND the engine...so that attachment idea is out..!
The pad on the frame isn't on the XB frame.
BUT...one can be made and "welded" on...!

i haven't had the pods off my bike since i ordered the bike with race fairings on it and right now my bike is at the shop with a blown motor... so i was just going off the top of my head... i do know that my upper and the cowls are all ONE peice for me... and is ony attached to the radiators with one screw... i couldn't remember how the radiator supports were on... but i never said it wasnt possible to switch them onto an xb

 

[GSXdoubleR88ciNINJA]

a, my bike is different

I'm also not crazy about them, but the one thing I'm really crazy about is that massive 1125 fairing. I've gotta say that one new bike he made, now sure which is way, but it had the bigger radiator covered and just a normal firebolt fairing on it looked pretty slick.
