Installed the LED signals and got the new relay, Got some black levers, Put on a Jardine RT-1 can, took off the "american motorcycles" and painted the BUELL logo and windscreen Cherry Red,took out the headlight bezels, possibly going to paint the inside red...not sure, and doing the GP shift mod tomorrow...whatta y'all think? I really wanna get a "BUELLXB.COM" decal for the swingarm if anyone knows where to go about getting one of those

Before and after...

that is the exact bike I have. Looks good, but personally I would go with a smoked windscreen. Thats how I have mine, but that's my opinion
 
i have the same bike but my buell logo is blue. i was thinkin about painting my windscreen blue since i have a spare but was unsure how it would look painted. did you paint the outside or the inside?

also if your willing to part with your headlight bezels id love to take them off your hands.
 
Personal opinion, I'm not a fan of the bezels being gone. Wind screen looks good though.






Good luck with the Jardine.
 
I will be getting some Buellxb.com stickers the same design as the shirts going this week, so I might have them up and available the following week
 
i painted both inside and outside, i think the bike looks alot cleaner without the bezels in. as far as the jardine goes... i'm not entirely sold on it, traded the stock muffler for the jardine so i'm not out anything if i decide to go back.
 
Looks good!

My personal opinion, (some of you guys will probably disagree with me) But I really hate the Firebolt stock windscreen (not yours specifically, generally speaking), I changed mine for the Zero Gravity Dark Smoke (double bubble) windscreen, and I like it a lot. I think your bike would look cleaner if you shaved the top of your windscreen (for example, what xtremelow did with his) Just a thought
 
How easy was that to shave off the windscreen xtremelow? i was considering it but don't really have the alot of tools in the garage to play around with. as far as the decals go...I'm sold as soon as you get some in...just let me know.
 
+1 Zero Grav Double Bubble dark smoke.. changes the look and actually is a + on the road.
 
I cut off my windscreen to be low. Did it with a hacksaw blade and a file in my college dorm room. Dont think tools are an issue. Just tape it off on the bike and get the line you want while its on so you can see what itll be. Then take your time with cutting to follow ur line. After file or sand the edge smooth. It worked pretty well for me. Then I painted silver
