Do these air box decals match the amber wheels?

Yellow Decal

I want to get these but want to make sure they will match the wheels. Anyone use them before?

Those are OEM part numbers. I would think so.

 

[50dro]

Yeah but I wonder what combo that particular part number came on? It's the newer style and I don't believe the amber wheels existed at the same time as these decals?

 

[50dro]

This is what I'm afraid they are:

Not quite amber [sad]

50dro,
that's the same problem I've been having. Everywhere I look and it's the same newer style decals. I want the older style amber not the newer BUELL yellow style [mad]

My local HD/Buell dealer said they could get the 2005 decals for me but since I won that contest at buellparts.net I figured I'd try to get them from there. I have an email in to them. I'll let you know what I find.

Yeah I think that's Uly yellow. [sad]

 

[bfletcher]

Yeah I think that's Uly yellow.

Yep, sunfire yellow.

Doh!! Gonna have to find other stuff to buy there unless they have other options that aren't listed on their site...

I have a 2005 XB12R firebolt with amber rims and amber BUELL airbox decals.here are some pics of it and pics from the parts catalog for 2005 firebolt models.

Thanks! That's the color I want to put them on. Why isn't there a listing for "translucent amber/thrust blue"?

Anyone have this same list for the 2007 models? I'm thinking of going for the newer looking decal...

Why isn't there a listing for "translucent amber/thrust blue"?

??? maybe some typo...
but, the pics above from my 2005 firebolt and the parts catalog is for 2005 firebolts.
i dont think thrust blue wasnt an available color on the 2007 models according to
http://www.totalmotorcycle.com/photos/2007models/2007models-Buell-FireboltXB12R.htm
thrust blue was last on the 2006 models

The 2007 that I'd be interested in is from the valencia orange lightning. They had the amber wheels and amber decals.

 

[50dro]

This is teh one I'm thinking of...

pm buellpartsguy he should be able to get you part number and maybe even the decal , I am guessing the decals are probably no longer made and few of them left or they are only going to make a very limited amount of in the future. because there is not much demand for the stock decals, only demand i can think of is few people like you wanting them and replace for insurance repaired bikes. good luck !

you want to also try calling Buell customer service to see if they can find you some or tell you if and when they might be available and where to get them at.Buell Customer Service at Harley-Davidson: the numbers are (414) 343-8400 and also (414) 343-4056 .
