When you putting the chin fairing and fairings on?

 

[TACPBuell]

I had the 2010 R1 Fairings on but honestly.. it looks better without them because they cover up a lot of the engine and it takes from the aesthetics.. I have to buy a chin fairing and get it painted but it shouldnt be more than like two weeks

how do the 12 throttle bodies work? did you do any aditional tuning for them? bike looks sweet

 

[TACPBuell]

Right now it works fine, but could use some tuning. Im just waiting on theoctopus to get back to me because I bought his top package to get this perfect.. The throttle body is a direct swap on the 9 and when tuned correctly adds around 3-5 hp abouts.

I've done one quick tuning session on my 12r and it was a very positive experience. Are you planning on running a wideband or use the stock O2 sensor?

 

[TACPBuell]

Well if I can get the stock O2 sensor off easy without tearing the bike apart I will put a wideband on there. If anyone knows how to get the O2 sensor off without tearing everything apart PM me please.

[redrider]

Great job![up][up] I can see by the pics you take alot of pride in the work you do!

 

[Stevenc150]

I wonder if dark red ceramic-coated headers would've been too much? Give it that blood vein, alive look. Anyway, Great looking bike!

 

[TACPBuell]

I did want to get the headers ceramic coated red but was having a hard time finding a place that would do it in a color that I actually thought would go well =/

 

[CoastieRider]

Which seat is that?

 

[TACPBuell]

The seat is just the normal height lightning seat. The passenger portion has the triboseat from ebay which works great btw. My next project is taking that in to get it reupholstered and have gel inserts put in it.

Super curious how you mounted the R1 side fairings?
thing looks sick would love to mount a set but have no idea on how? Details please???

 

[TACPBuell]

I had to mount them with custom brackets I made. There was one bracket that attached to the rear bolt for the air scoops. Then I also had another bracket that attached them up to the front fairing support bracket where you attach your turn signals. Im going to be reworking them and will attach them a little different and see how they look but odds are I will be keeping them off.
