Hi all.I have been watching this site since before I bought a Buell.Love the Buells and love this forum.Bought my brand new XB12Ss in February in Victoria Australia.It was sitting in a crate with 3 others for 18 months.As soon as I got it home I was on the net getting those personal touches for it.Mirrors,windscreen,tail chop,etc.She sleeps in the garage with my other toy,an 06 GTO.trying to upload some pics..........

Hey mate. i'm just over the ditch...

[ausbuell]

Got the tail tidy from DieselMoto.fitted up well,but finish isnt great.needed rubbing back and painting.Mirrors are Aprilia Tuono,winscreen from ebay.

Welcome and I've sent you a PM if your looking for some smaller indicators

 

[trucker922]

Love the all black...

 

[ausbuell]

I love the all black too.I'm trying to decide what to do with the headers,polished look jet hot coating or black wrap.is that too much black? and when I change the exhaust,polished or black/carbon look?..descisions...descisions........

 

[stellio78]

This might help with your decision.

 

[Brett01]

I had the same predicament for a while. I polished mine up by hand but to keep them looking good and shiny is alot of work. Looked into ceramic coating but as my headers have some damage (damn previous owner) i was told it would look shit. I wrapped mine last week and am stoked with how it turned out, makes it look more aggressive. And only cost me probably $50

 

[ausbuell]

I am really leaning towards going with the wrap as well.I like the look of the black wrap and it would help with the heat issue too.$50 sounds like a bargain.was it very hard to do?got pics?
thank you to everyone for the warm welcome

hey mate... good to see another bueller from aus. i am in sydney, but you have plenty of buellers down your parts.

you know of hte BRCA? if you dont... then get onto pete from srwmoto for some details. they are a good group of buellers who have regular rides.

we have annual buell musters. there is a large group going to warrick this october. hopefully we get to do another dinnerplain ride too.
