New to the Buell world....

[wiznut]

fork tubes are usually best to anodize.

 

[theskitzofrantic]

do you have to tear them all apart to anodize them?[confused]

 

[brightbuell]

I love the seat that you have.

 

[wiznut]

do you have to tear them all apart to anodize them?

Yup.

now im having trouble desiding what to do...I was gonna black out whole bike but I dont wanna take all this time and money to have a bike that looks like a stock 08 model...im thinking about blacking out all the hardware but doing frame and swingarm in a candy apple green....what's everyone think?[confused]

Are you black? Not trying to be racist, but there is a serious stereotype for that kind of flashy paint job...

Its kinda like this...

I think it would b cool...definatley different! Any bright color on a frame and swingarm with everything black always looks good in my book. I guess candy apple green might not b my first choice, but could turn out awesome.[up][up]

 

[trucker922]

Like u said...u could always change it

 

[theskitzofrantic]

I never thought of it being flashy...I wonder what Buell was thing when they made the cherry bomb wheels, thats kinda flashy....lol

 

[theskitzofrantic]

Swingarm is all ready to go with fresh powdercoat and new bearings installed...

 

[theskitzofrantic]

Footpeg bracket reassembled with fresh powdercoat...

 

[mace25]

in for pics once it is back together

 

[xxspudxx]

^ that.

I dig the color. [up] Not on my bike though.

 

[trucker922]

Love it...think I woulda left foot peg brackets black though....just my own opinion

 

[theskitzofrantic]

My footpeg brackets were silver...and the mount on the frame and actually look like part of the frame thats why i chose to color match them to the frame itself...

Sure you don't miss your Kawasaki? It'll look great I'm sure, have Fun doing it

 

[Buelligan2010]

what the guy liked the color of his old ride but wanted something cooler. and at least you could pick your bike out of a line up. All the newer ones are black frame and swingarm . And no Buells are never Flashy ,stock yellow orange blue gold red and rims to match. never saw lime green till now [up].

 

[theskitzofrantic]

I don't miss my "OLD RIDE" yet....because I still have it....for now anyways. Gonna have to deside what one one to keep after I get the Buell back together though.

Liking The green! But then again I had to have mine with the cherry bomb red wheels. Can't wait to see pics when its done.
