Xtremelow's War Horse Build Start to End

[JOEL9]

the ebr website says the rear brake rotor will only work w/ the ebr chain drive kit. bolt pattern is diff. i think[confused]

 

[xtremelow]

I still have about a dozen parts on order, so for now I will be cleaning the engine, cutting/grinding some of the powder coat for grounds, and just little crap until I get my gaskets and some other must have parts to begin the build.

Mad that powder is SICK [up]

 

[xtremelow]

You get your plastics painted yet Rob?

 

[nativeXb12Rbuell]

[up][up]

 

[Buell_Cru]

Xtremelow, how much money do you need to finish the build? For parts?

 

[xtremelow]

To damn much, my list is still close to $1,500. Just spent $800 yesterday [smirk]

 

[delta one]

Looking good[up]

How happy are you with the powder job on your wheels? I have been trying to get the same thing done to mine locally all winter (but black and clear over the whole thing after), so far the only guy I have found that can do it is Hammer and he is far enough away that shipping is nearly 1/2 the cost of getting it done.

X do you plan on having any thing painted on it your rank would look cool somewhere on it.

 

[xtremelow]

I am very pleased with the Powder Coat, well worth the money IMO.

As far as my rank, still tossing that around, I will be doing some type of military symbol on the front fairing and another thing or two just not positive yet.

I want to see a stop motion build just like this one with your Buell

 

[meetch]

That video was awesome!

 

[boreas]

Not thinking so, I don't have that much time to devot into the build, plus it is hard enough for me to take pics while in the middle of the build [smirk]

MY MY, is that Marine Corps.,Green? I guess I can retire from my beloved Corp. but some things well,(AS I wipe a tear OF joy from my eye). I just think its very well done!Who did your Rims Top notch. The twin ram air box cover looks simular to mine. I'd shoot a picture over to Erik so ne can get a grin as well.[cool][up]

 

[xtremelow]

The Green is called some type of Forest Green but it was the closest I could get to a Gloss Military Green, I was originally going to go with a fake patina paint job that looked like an old military truck, but with going all new on the bike I wasn't liking the idea of the old flat colors it would require.

The bike will have some other military ques to it since I want it to be a subtle military theme bike, nothing crazy like guns mounted up or anything just small airbrush markings and insignia that is important to myself.

Delta One is going to be doing a couple photo layouts of the bike when I am done, I am hoping to submit them into a few Motorcycle magazines and have my first full feature[up], had my s-10 show truck in a couple magazines but not as a feature just sitting at shows and within a picture.

Hawk Performance Muffler

Instead of his dual out I had him mount up a 3" long 4" OD Stainless tip, I will clean up the edges and give it a brushed look to go with the lips on the wheels, if I dont like that I will just use some high gloss heat paint to hide it within the bike.

Looks familiar! Here's mine with low gloss engine paint.

The build looks great BTW. You must be like a kid in a candy store with all those pristine parts laying around!!

 

[xtremelow]

Yup mine was inspired by yours for sure, just wanted the tip shortened up.
