Have not seen these in person but they appear to be a generic design and it appears that this auction is for only the rear sliders. If that's the case, these aren't that great of a bargain. Ours are only $80 for the non-spooled design or $95 for the spooled. Let us know if we can help...

Only reason I have got them from you is I want colored ones.. either blue or red.. or both.

I understand. As I've said in the past on our reasoning for not offering colors other than black and natural...Most if not all of the anodized parts that I've seen (or tried to match myself) that have tried to match any of the Buell powder-coated wheels don't match closely enough for my taste. That coupled with variations from one wheel lot to the next and variations in the anodizing process itself makes it very difficult (if not impossible) to obtain a "perfect match." We refuse to sell something that I wouldn't be proud to have on my own bike so we just don't offer it.

If it were me and I wanted to match a wheel, I'd probably have a professional auto-body supply shop color match the wheel and sell me a custom mixed paint (or perhaps a powder?) to apply to the 5-0dro natural axle sliders. I'm not trying to bash anyone else's stuff...This is just my take on it and my reasoning for only black and natural offerings. Let me know if we can help you out in any way. Good luck to you!

I'm not matching my wheels.. I have a 09cr so they are black.. I just want a dark blue or red.. I'm going red white and blue themed

Cool man...You might be able to find something out there that will suit you. You may consider Knight Design's stuff over the Ebay ones in that case. They make nice stuff and they're fellow Buellers! [up]

yea i do like them.. a little pricy.. they have those on ebay as well and a little cheaper.

Duude. The Buell community isn't that big. Support the vendors who sweat it out to make stuff for us. I have no connection to, but can vouch for the service and quality from both 50dro and Knight.

But, in any case, good luck with your search and build.
