ebr brake ducts on xb?

[9lbHammer]

When I order my ducts, I'm going carbon fiber to match the rest of the original carbon fiber parts on the bike. (around $750)

Obama's SOTU was right! The economy is obviously doing better!

Ztl2 but lighter

I see. Not sure I understand the attraction then. Unless you're a professional road racer or looking to set some new records on the strip, I doubt it's enough to make a difference opposed to a normal ztl 2. The brake ducts are cool. But probably not useful to the average rider. But oh well. The money supports EBR and who doesnt like new parts?

EBR retrofit ftw

Found out the fix for the brake scoop rubbing on the rim!

Turns out to be a $10 bracket that uses existing hardware. Attaches to the axle plug using the stock bolt, and supports the scoop so it doesn't fall against the rim and rub.

Hit me up if you need one [email protected]

You don't like unique...you are downright crazy. Please post pictures of your xb. Its obviously a masterpiece if you are willing to waste $750 on an ugly brake duct.

Pics? Sure. What I started with in April...

How she sits now. I pick it up from the shop having heated handgrips installed using factory wiring added to the '03 harness.

I have to say though that I'm surprised to see the negative responses among other riders. I know everyone will have differing opinions on mods, styles, and taste, but if bikes are our passion, I would expect that money isn't much of an object for the things we are passionate about.

(But hey, I just received a rare book from the 1930's from the UK today (I live in Florida). Maybe I should have saved all that money and just downloaded it to my Kindle.)

Need? Since when has any of this been about genuine need. It's about want. This would be a forum full of stock bikes if people only did stuff cuz they need it. Mod away OP.

Got the scoop this morning and it is held on using the best sliders out for the XB made by 50dro.
