Thanks!

i dont know but the wheel set is insane. i want!!! and is that front upper motor mount also a frame slider? idea!!!!

 

[Thaloc]

Nothing for fact, but from looks:

Spoke wheels run like $1200+
Full Termignoni exhaust
Engine sliders
steel braided brake lines
frame covers
pegs/rearsets look custom, maybe woodcraft or rizoma?
custom airbox cover
Its either an R with the an S tail conversion or an S with an R triple tree/clip on conversion

Sweet looking bike, I wonder whos signatures those are...

I'm really digging the front end! What headlight is that? What headlight brackets are those? I've seen the fender on Twinmotorcycles site. I've seen most of it's upgrades on other part sites, but that triple set-up and headlight is what I have no clue about. The wheels I think are from Italy...the tires look like what they released for the Ducati sport 1000 classic and Paul Smart edition. Great looking mods IMO. Nice spin on the XB!

I love me some of those spoked rims ! They're HOT !!

I think the triple clamps are the Freespirts clip on conversion for Lightnings

The tyres are Pirellis, the tread pattern is identical to the Phantoms from the late 70's.


edit: googled it

there maybe more info on that bike here at buellxb.com or at least a link for it.
it(& other buells with spoked rims) was talked about in a thread for uly's a guy wanted to know about where to get spoked rims for his uly so he could buy different size tires that were nobbys for off roading. so try a search in the uly sections or in the mods section.

here i found it Wire-wheels-19-front-and-17-rear

Looks like Erik's signature.

I was thinking Roland Sands, but it doesn't come up if I Google it. Pretty sick. Those wheels are jewelry.

 

[dave_xb12r]

The wheels are from this company. link

Another bike, same wheels

 

[WALLSXB]

God!! Those wheels look good ! Like that white Uly also.

Looks like the Europeans have alot of shops dedicated to modifying Buells the right way, not chopping them up to use the motor for another me too chopper.

I think there should be a law or something that states that you can't cut up a Buell to make a chopper. They should go kill a sportster they still make those.
